I took a Marine Geology class, and we never discussed the fact that water was wet, but I'm pretty sure that it is, despite never having covered that in the Marine Geology class.

You stated that better than I did.

I never ment that in any way, what I mean is that threw "logical reason" I have concluded this to be BS. Now what you need to do is at the least prove me wrong with some sources!!! Oh, and in this case because of the nature of the subjefct if this isn't on MSNBC, BBC, or mdia along that lines it probubly isn't true.

Ok, you get no points for overlooking the sarcasm. I'm not the one who came up with this loony theory, I'm the one whos asking if you can back it up with reliable sources, sources such as those a professor would ask for in college. Can you handle that??

No, what you said was

and we're simply pointing out the FLAW in your "logic".

Also, the sarcasm bus missed one passenger in this thread and it certainly wasn't AlphaFrog.

It's hard to accept "logical reasoning" from someone who doesn't even know the difference between "threw" and "through".

Why should I bother to prove you wrong with sources, when you have yet to cite sources to prove your initial point? And once again, you can't "negatively prove" yourself by saying "if the information is not there, it must not be true". That completely backwards thinking and false reasoning. I might not be able to find a source on MSNBC that says the Earth revolves around the sun, but that doesn't mean that it's not true.

Well were sure going round in circles here. How can I prove something wrong when nothing has really even been written on it?? You wanna know why nobody is writing anything that is actually worth a damn?? Because it's BS!!

I'm going to try and stay away from this thread because listening to this crap is only making me stupid.

And god knows you can't afford to get any stupider. If you did, you might start drooling on yourself.


(Ok, I know that was low...but I can only take so much).

They should just move all people with AIDS into one neighborhood instead so that they can have sex and share needles without worrying about spreading it.
