That means I do not … know … it is false memory
Nor do I. I accept false memory, with all the supporting evidence, as the most plausible explanation but am open to evidence demonstrating my error. You dismiss the most plausible explanation out of hand and are not open to evidence.

Do you see the difference?

The evidence suggests … that explanation is not even close…

Some claim to be uncertain yet still insist there is an effect. Isn't that hypocritical?

In 1912 the meteorologist Alfred Wegener described what he called continental drift, an idea that culminated fifty years later in the modern theory of plate tectonics.


Many distinguished scientists of the time … were outspoken critics of continental drift.

And do you know one of the pieces that were investigated to verify or falsify Wegener's idea? The consequences of tectonic shift and the effects on the present state of the world.

One thing that would be really helpful to have in order to "investigate" your "effect" explanation... but one that conveniently gets changed retroactively whenever one of your "shifts" happen.

It's really amusing to see you argue against Flat Earthers: your approach to "investigation" is not an inch better than theirs.
