And you would believe him?

I never told you guys to believe in my experiences, but these proofs stand to reason regardless of who said them.

So, If I told you the reason I changed my name to Valkyrie is because Odin told me to directly, you would accept that as proof the Odin exists?

Proofs are proofs, 
they illuminate truths,
Be it from a young boy,
Or Mad man who trifled with life like a toy,
Proofs are proofs,
They illuminate truths.

But, you've offered no proofs. You've offered stories, personal experiences and straight up bullshit. No proofs.

Your denial doesn't make the proofs go away... they are there, and will remain there no matter what you say.

Because you see, you only think you are bearing witness to what you imaging to be proof because you’ve achieved an unusually perfect blending of not knowing what proof is, and not knowing what shit is required to stimulate your rather weak and pathological psychology to delight in substituting the one for the other with idiot shitfaced conviction.

The proofs if reflected over properly can lead to certainty.
