Blatantly false. Insurance companies paid the claims because there was no evidence to prevent them from paying out the claims. In absence of evidence, they are compelled to honor the contract and pay the claim based upon the only fact they have at their disposal, that the ship or plane is missing.
Coast Guard gave their opinions, but still couldn't provide any facts, to put into perspective, where these ships or planes were to be found at with any specificity.
For all they knew was the ship of plane was missing. If in reality it had been secreted off to a place unknown, they had no evidence of that at all, or they would have provided that evidence had they known.
Again, one definition of a mystery is; Something secret or unexplainable; unknown. These disappearances fall into the unknown category. While plausible explanations were put forth, there was no evidence to confirm or dispel the mystery. Because the facts were, wait for it, "unknown".
Murders are a mystery, until they are solved. Depending on the evidence presented in court, the murder can be said to remain a mystery, at least by some.
People who go missing, and are never found are considered to be mysteries. Are they still alive or were they victims of an accident, or perhaps even a murder.
While these ships & planes that have come up missing, have been taken by some people and provided hypothetical mythical explanations as to the cause of their disappearance. That still does not dispel that those disappearances remain a mystery, but the hypothetical mythical explanations are most likely not the answer at all. Bit it still remains a mystery as to what did happen.
Your point is in regards to explanations, and has nothing to do with mysteries whatsoever. Learn that words have meanings. Mysteries do exist. Explanations can be incorrect.
What was the fate of Jimmy Hoffa? Please provide a detailed explanation with the facts. If you are unable to do so, then it remains a mystery, does it not?
The Coast Guard says there is nothing to the tales and I didn’t say the insurance companies didn’t pay, I said the insurance companies say there isn’t anything to the tales.
The insurance companies charge the normal rates for the area because they have no reason to raise them.
