Well, here's a four-pronged response to a post that doesn't deserve prong one: 1. The dinosaur wasn't 'man-eating' because it lived tens of millions of years before there were any men to eat. 2. If the story was made up, by whom and for what reason? And would you also include generations of similar fossil finds, dating back millions of years? Is everything that can be dated back more than a few thousand years 'made up'? Tell us more about this vast conspiracy. 3. If you 'can't figure out why people who believe like (yourself) can't see it' (whatever that means), why not tell us exactly what you believe and why, rather than just hurling insults. Be specific, give your reasons and some references. Then I'll comment, if I think you've said anything worthy of a comment, and other readers here can do the same. That, I think, is the purpose of this forum. 4. In any case, please answer this question: Which is the more legitimate method of reasoning: 1. Looking at all the evidence and forming conclusions based on the evidence, which may change over time as new evidence is discovered, or 2. Starting with the conclusion, for which there's usually no evidence at all, and ignoring all the evidence to the contrary, regardless of how much new evidence may emerge? Please at least answer that question. By the way, thesis, do you know the agricultural term for a four-pronged fork? Very appropriate for handling your posts.
