To date, no double blind study has either proven or disproven the efficacy of human sacrifice. So, we really can’t say if it would be a good idea to dismantle Chesterton’s Volcano. /s


Since we’re already splitting hairs here and there, I can’t help but point out that a double-blind study would likely be a wrong kind of study for this purpose (gods could use it to find out if virgin sacrifices are a must, or non-virgins could be just as good), and you probably meant to say, “randomized controlled trial”.
