However the argument still applies, that if the reasons are the same, then the same conclusion should follow. I agree, that we need to test our witnesses, and any testimony given by others. And with DNA there is a further interpretation also. And even though I misspoke regarding your position, the rest still applies also here. As I mentioned before, and no one still seems to want to answer, it seems to me, that there are three ways in which we form our beliefs. Personal witness, testimony from others, and reason. Unless you want to make an argument for feelings, is there anything that you would add? This concerns how the facts or information where acquired, and processing that information. I don't see how one can argue against these in any meaningful way, without undercutting their own arguments. As we seen here, even when I wasn't questioning, the testimony, I was criticized for disregarding the evidence. This is nonsensical to me.
edit to add..... I do appreciate the few posters, that when you strip away the name calling, insults, and restating the conclusion do have some discussion. Thanks,
Are you saying, RR, that you think witness testimony is on par with all other forms of evidence available to us? That DNA evidence is as much "testimony" as any other testimony? I just want to be sure I'm understanding you correctly here...
I think that it is going to depend on the particulars of the case, and what the each piece of evidence is presenting and how it connects with others. Either may overturn the other depending on the circumstances. And yes, any facts or information from DNA, for me, is going to come from testimony or be information passed to me from another.
