That is a simplistic view of Nessie, no doubt promulgated to you by that famous anessian Richard Dawkins. It is certainly true that Nessie, "in the sense defined" by him, is a delusion, but there are many more elaborate ideas of what Nessie is.

For example, I remember reading a comic in which Nessieans discuss what Nessie could be. Some propose that Nessie are people who live around and have the ability to turn into Nessie:

While others propose that Nessie was created by Nazis as an aquatic soldier to attack England, but only one or handful got there and ended up in Loch Ness:

While others speculate that Nessie lives in every body of water on Earth, because they are not a Plesiosaur but Earth's tentacles: you see, Earth is alive and is using its tentacles to grab people and animals to eat them:

And many more explanations.

I am so fed up with you anessieans who have this strawman idea of what Nessie is when there are much more elaborate ideas of what it could be. That's why you should read some books from serious Nessiesans on this topic, because you only know Dawkins' idea of Nessie, which is simple and childish. Dawkins lives in England and the nearby Scotland. probably has a higher percentage of people who know Nessieanism well than just about any other country on the planet. Why didn't Dawkins get on his bicycle and visit Scotland, so that he could have it explained to him why this whole thing is an argument against something which they don't believe?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
