If you aren't willing to back up your claims with proof, you shouldn't make them. Period.

That's one of the silliest assertions I have heard on FR

Baloney, bologna, Use google yourself. I only have so much time to invest here. Just like in my work, some tasks justify more thouroughness than others. To me, this doesn't. You may disagree, and that is fine. But it's my time and my choice. Deal with it. You wanna know this stuff, do some research, don't just resort to "I don't buy that."

I repeat, this doesn't rise to that level for me. You, on the other hand, may choose, and have chosen, to refues to believe it without sources. That is your right and choice.

Let me explain how this works: you make an assertation, the burden is then on you to prove it's true. Otherwise, it remains nothing more than an assertation. There's no shame in that, Lord knows there are plenty on the web. For instance, on another message board I frequent, there's a man who claims the US government uses the Ark of the Covenant to sink invisible enemy ships. Ironically, his defense is similar to yours.

You wanna know this stuff, do some research, don't just resort to "I don't buy that."

Just where did you get the idea that I haven't done research into just this area?
