Absolutely and unequivocally no!
This is exactly what the detractors latch on to, as evidenced in the OP. The motto of the Royal Society is: Nullius in verba. "Take nobody's word for it!"
It's a one size fit's all statement but it just works bitches.
To me I will always accept solid evidence for anything. However the starting point for any paranormal claim or religious claim, is nope. I will never give any of these claims the benefit of any doubt. They are delusions and do not deserve one tiny bit of credibility.
Sure there are lots of smart sounding so called experts, with solid evidence based claims, on the internet. I'm sure I could find some sites that provide solid evidence about Sasquatch, or the tooth fairy, or Loch Ness. However just like claims of paranormal, I will not lend them one spec of credibility.
Tip : if it's paranormal, or fairy tale, or religion, call it out as a true skeptic would...... please provide the indisputable evidence of your claim, because I am not buying it !
