Skeptics might be jumping to conclusions
RE: Skeptics might be jumping to conclusions
I play whack a mole with you because I enjoy it, not because I have any confidence in your ability to discard your silly beliefs, lol.  

Go KO ghosts your own damned self..you don;t need me or anyone else for that sorry ass business.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

You can now only link from https addresses.

I'm not sure if imgur images use that format?

I don't want to research the issue, but I think I have a valid opinion.

Go join the creationists, moan landing hoaxers, 9-11 conspiracies, big footers and flat earthers.

They do, but the https location includes comments and stuff.  Let's try it:

Looks like no dice. Dang.

Again, we're not here to validate your beliefs. We're also not here to do the basic legwork a productive member of society should do. Remaining lazy and gullible is your prerogative, but don't blame us for not wanting to fill in the gaps you currently have simply due to laziness.

And, we're talking middle school levels of scientific awareness (what the scientific method is and is not, mostly) here. Certainly nothing so dramatic as "devoting your life" to it.

But surely Dean Radin is already aware of this as well which means he knows how the method works.  If this is your argument for dismissing the paranormal research as being woo, then it is a dishonest argument.

Okay, let's do something actually interesting.

What do you think about this Radin guy? Who thinks he is:

(1) A standard con man

(2) A woo obsessed pseudo scientist who believes his own shit

(3) Something else? Crazy? Just really bad at critical thinking and science?

I think it's (1), he seems too intelligent and educated to be making the hopelessly fundamental errors he is committing. But then... who knows.
Feel free to send me a private message.

This is a complete non sequitur. Add learning basic logic to your list of homework. That, or brush up on your trolling.
