If you want to believe everything that someone says they saw, with no corroborating evidence, then that is your prerogative. Some of the rest of us require a little more verification when the claims are spectacular. If you can’t understand that, I’m sorry, but that’s just the way it is.

"If you want to believe everything that someone says they saw,"

I never said that: but then, it's always easier to rebut what somebody didn't say.

I said "They need evidence," and "Using evidence, follow the possible chains of necessary and sufficient causes and effects, and see where they lead."

If you can't construe somebody's written statements accurately, you can't have much of a discussion.
