Rejecting nonsense is not evidence of a closed mind.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, but the criteria resulting in a "nonsense" label is a critical issue.

It still mystifies me that SUPPOSEDLY FIRMLY CRITICAL, OBJUECTIVE, . . . . FAITHFUL BELIEVERS IN THE RELIGION OF SCIENTISM, ETC.

WHOLESALE

MAINTAIN A DEATH GRIP ON FAVORING VERY ILLOGICALLY, UNFOUNDED A FIERCELY DEFENDED HOLD ON VULNERABILITY TO A TYPE II ERROR.

They clearly are much more willing to make themselves vulnerable to death by a TYPE II ERROR

QUITE CONTRARY TO AVAILABLE EVIDENCE

merely because OF EMOTIONAL FAITH PREFERRING A TYPE II ERROR,

they reject the available evidence supposedly because it doesn't meet their criteria as acceptable.

When, in fact, their biases make the evidence illogically beyond their consideration--not on objective bases but because of emotional, psychological based aversion to the possibilities, probabililties that the evidence points to.

I don't consider such mental gymnastics objective or scientific to the least degree.

Okay, you see evidence and things that normal people don't see. That might make you uniquely correct, or it might make you something else.

We all have to live within our own realities.
