Holocaust of the Gaps

An evidentiary practice in which evidentiary standards are discarded and the lack of evidence is accepted as evidence or proof of genocide.

The Holocaust of the Gaps fallacy is necessary to explain the lack of documentary evidence establishing a planned genocide of the Jewish people.

Muhammad of the gaps fallacy

Muhammad of the gaps fallacy is when there is a supposed prophecy of the prophet muhammad of islam in the bible, but if other dont know who the prophet is, you assume it is the prophet muhammad of islam.

In John 1:21 it says the prophet! If its not jesus (since hes the messiah) and its not john the baptist or elijah, therefore its muhammad! This is a Muhammad of the gaps fallacy.

Science of the Gaps

The arrogant misapplication of scientific authority to claim that phenomena currently unexplained by science are therefore permanently unexplainable by it, or that science's current models are complete and final. It is the mirror image of the "God of the Gaps" fallacy. Instead of inserting deity into unknowns, it inserts a dogmatic, closed scientific materialism, claiming "science says it's impossible" as a way to shut down inquiry into the anomalous, paranormal, or merely not-yet-studied.

Example: When presented with well-documented but poorly understood phenomena like certain psychedelic experiences or rare consciousness events, a skeptic might state, "Consciousness is just brain chemistry. Anything else is woo. That's the Science of the Gaps—what we don't understand now, we never will, because it doesn't fit the model." This turns tentative scientific understanding into an unchallengeable orthodoxy.

Gapping the field

Gapping the field refers to having a very intense and strong last hundred meter dash in a middle distance or long distance race. This term can only be used when someone is clearly picking up pace when coming down the last 200 meter or less during a race.

"Damn Chase and Noah are gapping the field in that 800 meter race."
