At least you’ve made plain what part of the “Hoss” you are

Interesting... You can attack the poster but not the point.

Since you've resorted to personal attacks, you concede the argument. Thanks for playing.

Hoss (either end you prefer)

You began the personal attacks when you suggested gratitude I was not your teacher. We’ll see what you can learn.

The point is that the rules of logic go back to before Aristotle and yet somehow you’ve reached adulthood oblivious to them. Briefly stated, extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.

Provide some proof for virgin birth, burning (yet unconsumed ) bushes, the sun stopping in the sky, walking on water, resurrection from the dead, living within the belly of a whale, etc. etc and I’ll discuss it. Absent proof, reasonable doubt is the most logical position. No system of rational thought requires me to prove everyday experience when challenged by extraordinary claims that violate empirical experience.

If this is beyond your comprehension, that’s not the teacher’s fault.
