I did. Did you?
Demos Shakarian, who wrote the autobiography, was not born until 1913. The alleged "prophecy" happened in 1852. Demos could not have witnessed the "prophecy" in 1852, therefore, his words in the autobiography constitute hearsay evidence. To the best of my knowledge there is no other record of this "prophecy" besides the Demos autobiography.
Your constant insisting makes you look foolish.
Have never had any doubt that I looked foolish, to you.
Perhaps you point out a difference between us . . .
I wonder, how many earnest, factually stated, mature perspective; well experienced, hard won understandings about life; how many historical experiences
of
YOUR GRANDPARENTS
have you routinely trashed as unreliable heresay?
Not my habit.
Sorry it's yours.
I tend to treat reliable sorts of historical family recollections as fact vs hearsay.
All the more so with people who demonstrate a persistent, decades long, way above average stickler level obsession, affinity for HONESTY AND THE TRUTH.
But, hey, I can understand your biases etc. driving you to do otherwise.
