Evidence to Convict?

[Astonished]

Are you aware-or at least able to understand-that this looks like you're trying to make other evidence look as fallible and unreliable as testimony? That this comes across as an incredible, unwarranted and propaganda-esque dismissal of the value of any evidence at all, just so that you can make it seem as though the worst sort of evidence (the only sort the scriptures have going for them) is still on a comparable footing with every other type? Can you see how, in our shoes, this is what it sounds like you're doing here? That this may be one of the reasons it's so difficult to take anything you say seriously because it's simultaneously maximally ignorant and maximally dishonest?

As I said, I'm not going to debate this here (that is not the purpose).  If you like make a new thread of your own.  You can test my "ignorance", and examine my reasons all you like there. 

However, if you are going to question my character and accuse me of dishonesty simply because I disagree.  I think that is a reflection of you more than myself.  Now there could be an inconsistency in how I act vs what I say I believe, you can try to expose that.  But I always try to answer honestly.

Oh, you're at least consistent in your ignorance and intransigence, that's not in dispute. I'm simply attempting to get you to really look at yourself in the mirror and understand that about yourself. That you are incapable of providing a good argument for anything because you're not willing or able to look at it from the outside in. If you continue to limit yourself to that worldview, you're going to continue to miss out on so much. So forget about the rest of us, just do that for yourself, exercise some critical reasoning, be ruthlessly scrutinizing of your own methodology, and you might just emancipate yourself.

But if this is what you have decided to use as your glass ceiling, whatever, I'm tired of looking at how it's making your face all scrunched-up against it.
