Seriously, am I the only music fan who knows what “refute” means? (A hint: It doesn’t mean “rebut”!)
@marc h.: uh, refute means “to prove to be false or erroneous, as an opinion or charge.” Also, commonly considered a synonym for ‘rebut.’ i’m not sure i see your point.
I think “refute” generally means showing how a logical chain of statements, from premise to conclusion, is somehow faulty, whereas “rebut” can refer to a mere denial of claims.

Hilarious!
