I'd go a bit further than that, actually. Most depictions of Yoda place him on an isolated swamp planet in a galaxy far, far away, and thus even if he did exist we'd be extremely unlikely to find any evidence of his existance here. God, on the other hand, is usually depicted as taking an interest in human affairs. If God exists, there should be evidence of his existance, and in this case the absence of evidence is evidence of absence.Darth Wong wrote:How can you logically prove there is no Yoda?
When an idea does not follow logically from facts, then you can't be 100% sure that it's false, but you can say that if it's true, it would only be true by accident, which is something that you can say for any silly-ass idea.
