Scepti incorrectly uses the word vacuum when he means absolutely nothing. These aren't the same and nothing does not exist.
I use the word correctly. Science uses it incorrectly because they call it a VACUUM and it is not a vacuum at all, it cannot be created in earth's dome. The true vacuum is simply a word to describe none existence.
You cannot survive without matter, you cannot have scattered matter with a vacuum in between, unless you are a cell in suspended animation, as the earth is.
If someone makes up a new word with its own definition and you starting using that wod but with a different definition then it's using it wrong.
If they change the word vacuum to mean partially evacuated matter, then that would be fair enough.
They did. Check the Oxford English. In fact, I'll do it for you.
noun (plural vacuums or vacua /-jʊə/)
1. a space entirely devoid of matter.
a space or container from which the air has been completely or partly removed.
http://oxforddictionaries.com/us/definition/english/vacuum?q=vacuumNotice the elaboration under the definition. The word itself means both true vacuum, a space devoid of matter, and near vacuum, a space mostly devoid of matter. In the context of space and experiments, it is almost always used to mean near vacuum, as there has been no observed instance of a true vacuum in reality.
The problem is, they use vacuum to mean DEVOID of ALL matter,
Only sometimes.
which would mean a none existence,
It means no such thing, space devoid of matter is just empty space. There is no reason to believe that space ceases to exist.
which means they are using the word wrong.
Or they use a different definition. Which, they do.
Even a partial vacuum is wrong as it contains matter which means vacuum should not be used.
So by your standard, the use of the phrase "A bit cold" shouldn't be allowed, because cold means lack of heat, and no matter how low something's temperature is, it still has heat meaning cold shouldn't be used.
Irrelevant though and not worth arguing over.
You're the one that started it by insisting vacuum means a lack of anything, rather than a space totally or near totally evacuated of matter.
