Ok, do like we do when we evaluate situations.

Look at evidence. Not speculation, belief, interpretation. Evidence. Written, testimonial, circumstantial,physical evidence. Evaluate evidence based on common sense as to what it means, if anything.

Ask yourself this question, just like we do, “does this make any sense?” If it does not make sense, it is likely of no probative value.

Review occams razor. The simplest possible explanation is likely the correct one. The more complicated and the more assumptions required, the more likely the explanation is wrong.

The burden of proof and the burden of persuasion is always on the proponent. If you cannot prove or persuade you have lost the argument. I dont have to prove that ghosts dont exist. You have to prove that they do exist.

Ghosts don't post on the internet. People do.

Expand your thinking.

No one can prove ghosts exist or not.

That is a ridiculous comparison.

Stra..I mean okeydokey.

You act as though you are some kind of nawob that needs to teach us underlings.

You ain’t a nawob and we ain’t your underlings.

Actually no one here has to prove anything to you. You make your own decisions based on whatever criteria you like.

What you don’t do is show up here without having spent the last several months following Q, doing research, finding out what most people don’t want to know and discovering proofs along the way.

Hang around, learn, do some serious catching up then when you can have an intelligent discussion we will be more than happy to have it.

What ya shouldn’t do is show up uninformed and act like you are an authority on Q.

Got it? Good....

I know it is not time for Q to dox the team, but I will be so happy when they do so we can stick in in faces of all the smug, superior beings that have been trashing us since day one.

"Review occams razor. The simplest possible explanation is likely the correct one."

welll that is all true...however..how many consequences, odd happenings, perfect timing of events must we accept as explained by oxxams razor.....

a few, but we are way way past a few events...

I don't believe in endless "coincidences"....

infact, it would take a monstrous effort to ignore the obvious....
