RANT : will annecdotal twaddle and misrepresentations please stop masquerading as " proof "

can this be our new years resolution ?

please ???

because i am fooking sick of certain people [ they know who they are ] who throw about claims of " proof " with gay abandon

please have the good grace to actually research what " proof " actually means , before you so hideously abuse the term .

thank you .

Probably not, but maybe we can make a New Year's Resolution to stop replying to such threads.

Gee ape I hope that sedation makes you feel a little better round the edges mate.

That is a true rant if i ever saw one (and i've seen a few in my time!)

Well, guess ats needs to roll up the mat, fold and call it a day then. Proof, total proof as you want it may never see the light of day.

I hope it does with all my heart and soul, I really do, as I would love nothing more than see a alien craft up close, or see alien homes on the moon (or mining operations ect ect!)

Well, hope your rant made you feel a little bit better any how.

Cheers, DK.

I feel your pain too ape, but I think you know that it ain't gonna happen.

In the end ya just gotta take it on the chin and soldier on.

Proof is all in the truthiness in this day and age.

And honestly how long have you been waiting to throw "anecdotal twaddle" into a thread subject?

I'd agree

DK, it's not about stifling the conversation or "rolling up the mat", it's about not screaming "PROOF POSITIVE" when what you really have is anything but.

Or continue to demand that they provide a modicum of proof to a moderator. That usually shuts them up within a page or so.

"There's an alien in my closet!!!! I need help!!!"
"Ok take a picture."
"What??? My word isn't good enough???"
"No. Take a picture"
"I'm an honest person!!! I don't have anything to prove to YOU!"
"Ok, great. Take a pic and send it to a moderator"
"I don't need to stand for this!!! You have my word on it, take it or leave it"
"Anyone can claim anything over the internet, take a pic and send it to Intrepid or someone"
"I'll do no such thing"
(OP drops off the fact of the earth) [Guess the alien ate him ]

hmm ..........for a believer who rails against the nasty skeptics

it didnt take you long to slip an insult in ............ how

glad to oblige . i have my moments

PS - for an encore , would you like to see a thread :

" darkknight and his incredible dancing moons "

?

if you are going to reply , at least have the good grace to read it properly , and respond honestly

your strawman will now be ritually burned

i will state again :

i was not demanding proof , only requesting that people stop claiming to have it when it is clear to even the most impartial judge that thier " proof " is nothing of the sort

" proof " is becoming a much overused and abused term here

so please actually address the issue if you see fit to reply
