Go ahead, disprove this story

Per Paul’s assertion in class that we do not currently have any evidence to disprove any of the current dominant stories about the origion of the species, I would like to add that there are in fact an infinite amount of stories that we do not have evidence to disprove. For example the story that the universe was created by a blue giraffe named Herbert. There is no evidence to disprove this story.  There is also no evidence to disprove the story that the earth was designed as a giant laboratory experiment by mice to test human behavior.  In fact this is actually a fairly useful story. 

Herbert - Creator of the universe?
