They make crop circles. That's where you can stop. We have seen PEOPLE make crop circles. Therefore it is entirely within the realm of possibility for PEOPLE to make crop circles. Therefore in order for us to accept that some crop circles are not made by PEOPLE you need evidence to put it outside the realm of possibility.

The simplest answer is the most likely. That's is the religion of logic. Until you stack up extra ordinary evidence that moves the activity up in complexity past the current simplest answer there is no reason for any person using logic to assess the situation to not assume they're made by people.

We have seen PEOPLE make crop circles.

We have seen people ATTEMPT to copy formations that were made by someone or something, but they have never been able to duplicate that which has been found in authentic crop circle formations.

The REAL ones are created in such a way that the crops have not been damaged. The are bent at 90 degree angles and weaved together. Faked formations ALWAYS exhibit damage and breaking to the crops, and are not weaved.

And yes, not one hoaxer has been able to duplicate the precision of the real thing...

Dream on brother. Your impeccable "logic" will build bridges and buildings......But not all crop circles. You assert that people must be the most simple explanation. I don't buy this. Not yet by a long shot.

Good info at this link>http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2002/08/0801_020801_cropcircles.htmlMovie Mistakes
In the Disney movie Signs, the circle formation is found in the middle of a corn field. In reality, corn is not the best medium for crop formations and very few are found in corn fields. When the movie's producers came to England to consult with circle experts, they were told the circles were made in fields of corn. To a European, corn covers all the cereal crops—wheat, barley, oat, and so on. To Americans, corn means only maize. Hence the error.
