Well now, you’ve been just as categorical in declaring, there is no ‘cause’ and ‘effect’ (#406). It seems, after all, that the burden falls equally on you.

If an assertion is made without any evidence, I don't need to provide any evidence in denying their assertion.

And yet you criticize the assertion. You just will not tell us on what basis you criticized it. If you criticize it — for lack of evidence acceptable to you — then surely you must have some "evidence" by which the false premise can be "falsified."

So please, dear LeGrande: Just speak up and tell us what that "evidence" is.

Nihilism in a tote bag. What is your evidence for that assertion?

If your denial is without evidence, and you refuse further elaboration, then your assertion enjoys no greater status than that which you confer upon others. But, Alamo-Girl has provided you examples of cause and effect (#418), so what you allege is not true.

You are like the three-year-old boy who answers everything with “why” and imagines himself the cleverest fellow around, when you are but the faintest fart in a distant galaxy.
