This is, of course, absurd. Everyone lives their life playing the odds. You could be hit by lightning tomorrow as you pick up your morning paper, BUT you venture out into the unknown despite the possible danger! Everything in existence works on odds possibilities. Things tend to happen. You could be invaded by a home invader, and you could get flesh eating bacteria. The odds of being effected by either of those things makes preperation a bit silly.

you're making the stupidest comparisons. this is the mark of someone who knows they don't have a stronger argument. my gun can't stop a volcano but it can stop a criminal. comparing criminals to volcanos is like comparing guns to seatbelts.
hows that for torpedoing stupid arguments.
