Khandro: Your last comment is silly and smacks of the ramblings of a person who suddenly realises that they are talking nonsense. The jury in a court case is made up of ORDINARY citizens who weigh the evidence.
The planet Neptune was predicted to exist mathematically before it was discovered, by observing the behaviour of other planets which COULD be seen.
The standard model of particle physics accommodates almost all the observed behaviour of the vast array of known particles and predicts the existence of the Higgs particle(s), just as the theory of gravity predicted the existence of Neptune. The chances of there being nothing like the Higgs or something equivalent are therefore very small. That's why all the money has been made available - the odds are very much in favour of the Higgs existing, much greater than 50-50. If you could bet on the non-existence of the Higgs, the bookies wouldn't give you very good odds.
