How can you prove something doesn't exist if it doesn't exist?

Ex: how can I prove vampires don't exist, even if I did a test on everyone I can find that doesn't mean their are no vampires it just mean I didn't find any?

But this eye of mine perceives all. There is nothing that it overlooks. If this eye cannot see a thing, then it does not exist-Ulquiorra Cifer

How do you know no one has been living forever. It could be that they just haven't been seen.

Just go around throwing holy water in every celibate, good looking teen with a f*cked up hair style and you will eventually get arrested. Or discover a vampire.... If you believe hard enough.

you can't prove a negative

it would be an argument from ignorance if you tried

It doesen't mean that they dosen't exist just because ur unable to find it may be some one wil find, no one had witnessed that god exist but we stil belive in god the vampire thing is the same as God,,,& there is no need for u to prove that it dosen't exist if it really dosen't exist..........

The question is flawed. If something doesn't exist then it simply doesn't exist. You should form your query into how can you prove something doesn't exist when there is no definite evidence to prove or disprove their existence.

Unfortunately, that's it. If it cannot be proven true or false, there's no way to confirm it. Same goes for religions. Scientists simply cannot use the scientific method to discover if a deity exists or not. So the scientist cannot say it does or does not exist.

I bet you have a fairly high IQ. Most people would read that and never even realize what you pointed out.
