The Teapot Theory.
There could be a teapot revolving around the sun.
A china teapot.
No one can prove its not there
Yet no one is silly enoguh to believe it is.
Although, there really could be a teapot.

There may be one person who doesn't believe there is a teapot.
That person is a teapot athiest.
