Skeptics might be jumping to conclusions

Perhaps you need to open your own mind to the possibility that paranormal claims are..categorically, bunk. How bout you write us a novel of a post about that, next?

And yet, OP, you have "no god" right under your username.

I am open to that possibility as well as I said before.  You also mentioned that there was no evidence for these phenomena.  Well, I think it is a long journey to determine whether the claims of evidence these researchers put forth are claims of real evidence or not.  I don't think any shortcut method should be used either in determining whether there is real evidence or not.  I mean, skeptics would claim that the scientific method determines that there is no evidence for their claims and that this is all that is needed.  But perhaps there is something more that these skeptics do not realize.  There are those objections these researchers address and I think it's best to keep an open mind to these things the researchers say given that they are not crazy or insane people in denial of the most obvious facts of life.

I should have said "undecided" then.

Cool story, again..bro...but however long that journey may seem to be to you...perhaps others have already taken it?  I'm still waiting for that ghost photography...and it;a not as though I'm entirely unaware of the failure of past attempts at paranormal research.

Your "open minded" this or that..honestly, seems more like a defense mechanism for the proposition than anything resembling open mindedness.

If other people have already taken that long journey of full research, then I have no way of knowing if the conclusion they have drawn is correct or not.  You can do full research into something, but still draw the wrong conclusion.  I, myself, would have to do full research in order to draw my own conclusion.  But, as I said before, I have no interest in doing this research.  Lastly, as for my open mindedness, I am also open minded towards the idea that the shortcuts these skeptics take really are the right way to draw their conclusion.  But I am not exactly sure if that is the case.  For now, I am just arguing against the idea that they are using the right method.

Then you're defensively lazy, not open minded.  Full stop.

Sounds to me like you can't be sure of anything, wandering through life in a fugue state about whether or not there are pictures of my dead nana's ghost.

This would be correct.  The only things I can be sure of are basic facts of life such as that I need a heart to live and that, if I were to rip my heart out, I would die.  But, as for things that have a lot of debate about them such as the paranormal research or the idea that vaccines are harmful, I have to remain undecided on these things.

The troll is simply repeating the same script quoting but entirely ignoring points made against that same script.  I'm done.

I think I have addressed those quoted posts through what I said.  I just personally think that human beings tend to limit themselves to only one particular view through shortcut methods rather than embarking on the full journey of knowledge and truth.  Almost every religious believer, philosopher, paranormal believer, and skeptic use these shortcut methods.  I think this was the wrong way of doing it and I explain new things in regards to why that is in that post.

Then you are mistaken. Perhaps your reading comprehension is poor but I just smell a troll with a game plan. Now you just bore me.
