meaningful?

Yes

 

[Kylie]

that was the evidence


more than enough

No it wasn't. You did not show that other explanations were wrong, and you failed to explain why the criticisms against your argument were wrong.

Please provide evidence to support your claim.

 

[JohnEmmett]

Please provide evidence to support your claim.

enough…

this is Atlantis - if you want it to be

That's called wishful thinking; it's not how science works.

your asking for evidence


you need to realize evidence comes in different forms

Evidence is worthless if it can't be verified. You are unable to provide any evidence that can be verified, so your argument is reduced to showing us a story that agrees with your conclusion. That's not evidence. It's anecdote.

 

[JohnEmmett]

You may believe what you like. But if you expect others to accept your beliefs as fact you need to provide evidence. When that evidence is shown to be erroneous, you may continue in your belief but it is dishonest to continue claiming that the evidence is valid.

the evidence is valid… honest

 

[Bungle_Bear]

the evidence is valid… honest

No, it isn't. Simply claiming it is so does not make it so.

 

[JohnEmmett]

No, it isn't. Simply claiming it is so … does not make it so.

vice versa!

Yes, and?

If anything, this only supports my claim that there is no testable or verifiable evidence for your claims.

I don't see how


they don't know what I've shared here


nor do you know

 

[Bungle_Bear]

vice versa!

Quite right. That's why I supported my argument, I didn't just make a claim.

 

[JohnEmmett]

Quite right. That's why I supported my argument, I didn't just make a claim.

haha!

 

[JohnEmmett]

oh well……

We've all seen what you've shared in this thread. You have shared hypotheses, not evidence.
