The onus to provide proof is on the claimant, not the person questioning the claim. “You cannot prove my theory is false, so it is true” - does not make any sense.

If you simply say that “I do not need proof, I am going to believe it anyway”.. that is fine. But just say only that then.

Psyah, there is often circular logic in your posts.. and wild metaphors and weird comparisons. I am not the only one who feels this way. This coupled with your often super long religious ramblings full of religious references that you expect us to accept..is what has made me stopped reading your posts all together. I say this in all honesty that I very very rarely find your arguments to be cogent. Just like I largely ignore your posts now, feel free to do the same to me.

Peace sharaabee

I doubt you even know what circular logic means … From the beginning I have never “made a statement of belief that I claim I can prove objectively” - Rather most of what I say is “evidence” based … Now only if you understood the difference between “evidence” and “proof” …

So you see the onus to provide proof is truly on the claimant … but ONLY when that claim’s nature is said to be objectively provable. I’ve never made such a claim that I further claim is provable objectively, but rather I appeal to subjective “proof” or evidence … being possible and a valid basis to accept the claim as true when objective negation of the claim is absent.

I have never said the highlighted blue part above - this is an allegation by you. Rather what I have said is “since you cannot prove my theory is wrong there is a chance that it is true” - but I also say there are some things of truth that cannot be known or proven right or wrong until you “walk the walk” … (that is to gather empirical evidence by experience rather than trying to gather a rational basis for it)

If you have contention on some sort of circularity then bring it forward … The fact is you are afraid to get in to a detailed debate with me, because it will only show up that your allegations on me are false. Post #53 and your response in #54 just shows that you truly do not read my posts … as you admitted to (highlight in red above quote).

And LOL … bebo who likes your post must have been even less thorough than you …
