Now we're going to conflate actual evidence, including any scientific evidence that may exist for a particular claim, with testimony. Why you think peer reviewed scientific evidence is at all relevant or appropriate in the case of whether or not cops exist and shoot people is...beyond my comprehension. I mean, in terms of scientific evidence, are you talking about things like criminal forensics? Ballistics results? Blood spatter? Determination of probable murder weapons? Because...ya know...that IS actually science, lol.
I think you are confused (that is not my position at all)....
Of course it's not. You don't ever seem to actually have one, do you?
Quote:testimony, only applies, when one shares the personal experience or observation, and the receiver did not see or experience the evidence first hand. It is a transfer of knowledge, from one to another. And I only brought up the scientific peer review thing, because that too is often misappropiately roughy up as a rejection at times here. I am glad that you can see the category error.
I have no idea what you were trying to say here. Sorry.
Let's try this another way: do you believe the supernatural claims of the bible solely on the basis of what you consider to be testimonial evidence? Yes, or no?
