To: Senator Pardek
I AM curious--genuinely curious--

WHERE, just where did you get such fierce ABSOLUTE confidence regarding such a complex, multidimensional, convoluted, mostly obscure and hidden mess of a topic?

It almost sounds tone-wise like you ascribe to yourself
supernatural, flawless, 100% certain all-knowingness about the topic.

Given what appears to be a sparseness of earned knowledge about the topic, such certainty seems exceedingly extreme.

These types, like Senator Pardek, will always criticise what they don't know and what they fear, caring not to do the research. It's their natural reaction not to 'think outside the box', nor delve seriously into things that are outside their 'comfort zone'.

To simplify, they will not accept what others tell them about an experience until they themselves have an encounter. Then they will join the ridiculed, the 'insane' and 'kook list'. Then and only then will they know and accept anything that is what they consider 'fringe'. Remember the claim "The earth is definitely flat" and "Man will never fly"?
