  1. evidence that is tested is not subjective. try to use your brain for a once instead of your emotions.

  2. do you accept that because they felt it we should accept their feelings as fact or should more knowledgable people challenge them to prove it on public forums?

  3. How do you arrive at such a claim?

    I accept it because I cannot refute it.

    Not sure what you do for a living, but (among other things) I manage people. And I can't do a good job of that using your scientific reductionism and trying to take away my people's comforts like their gods, their pets, or their ice cream, even if those things might not be very good for them.

  6. You are claiming I was evading, I am asking for your supporting evidence, or just simply restate the question...

    Or are you evading asking the question again?

    True, but then this also applies, albeit to a lesser extent, to so many other trolls here who argue just for the sake of arguing and don't take time to read, digest and comprehend material before embarking on their next blind, rage induced foray. Having the last word is priority. Alas, the circular path. So tedious and tiresome. Needless to say, a majority of these discussions eventually dissipate and disintegrate into vitriolic and abusive personal attacks. Obviously, clear thinking and largesse are scarce commodities here.
    Watching from the sidelines makes for excellent entertainment though, except for the spherical circuits.

  8. So that you could pervert it with your self-serving interpretation as you did my previous comment? Did you miss the part about my not wanting to participate in your artistic license and merry-go-round logic? I had already stated my position earlier. I have little use for your follow-up "Did you stop beating your wife" style of questioning. Since (your) circular logic is never-ending, someone has to get off the ride first. That'll be me.

  9. So you are fearful of answering the question...

    Yes, that was the nature of your response then. And, you had to have the last word, too.
