Maybe the photos in the FIRST Book I ever bought, 'Flying Saucers Have Landed'....will turn out to be real?
Russell’s teapot is also rather silly
Russell's Teapot is supposed to parody the absurdity of unfalsifiable claims. Taken literally it is of course absurd.
Russell's teapot is an analogy, formulated by the philosopher Bertrand Russell (1872–1970), to illustrate that the philosophic burden of proof lies upon a person making empirically unfalsifiable claims, rather than shifting the burden of disproof to others.
Russell's teapot - Wikipedia
You and I both know what an unfalsifiable claim is and no one is disputing such things exist
OK
Works for me.
To be honest I haven’t been posting in this thread due to my own disillusionment with the OT. I feel like everyone, believers or not, are currently being played for suckers. I know it sounds cynical and paranoid but I’m having a hard time buying into the recent press on the phenomenon. I’ve been spending a lot of time in skeptic circles and the true believers are just too embarrassing for me to put much energy into discussing the topic.

In my village , I not only saw UFO but also beings inside them.
They had blond hair blue eyed , has light brown skin like Indian but had facial structure like East Asian people ,
Their craft made all our electronic equipment go crazy when passed by our neighbor hood back in 2009.

Seems Prof Brian Cox has caught up with the Astrobiologists on this subject. Life in the universe is mostly slime, bugs and other low life. The astounding odds we have overcome to get here won’t go away - there are very, very few advanced civilizations out there.

The press sensationalizes stuff like this. It sells.

Absolutely. It's embarrassing.
However, I am very adamant about pushing back against disinformation, and my annoyance with dingbat believers does not stop me. But the real crazies aren't UFO believers, but religious fundamentalists. They are nuttier than squirrel dung, but they do profound damage to society and individuals and I cannot in good conscience stand idle and allow them to do their evil. I push back real hard against that.
That's what the ignore feature is for. You can ignore the crazies here just like you ignore the drooling lunatics you encounter on the street. There's no reason to encourage them.Yes, and if you keep up with this, someone's gonna debunk this thread.
