Simple Challenge For Bigfoot Supporters

So?

So nothing you say has any affect on what Sweaty presents here as evidence for BF that isn't paltry.
LAL said:
I was told personally about the discovery of that 7-mile long double trackway north of Carson some 30 years after the event. Ed talked about it as though it had happened days before. I purchased a DVD of The Mysterious Monsters (the later version, not the Sunn picture I saw in Portland, Oregon, in a theater) in 2005, and there was Ed again, describing the event on film in the mid-seventies just about as he described it to me in front of the courthouse. Nothing wrong with his memory.

'I was told personally' and a similar mid-seventies description does not make it reliable evidence of sasquatch. If squirming with the definition of 'reliable evidence' is the best counter a proponent can provide than there is a serious problem with their position.
LAL said:
Under kitakaze's definition of reliable evidence, that double trackway would have to be deemed reliable evidence.

Trying to explain it away as hoaxers or jumping animals just doesn't cut it on something like that.

Why is it not easily attributable to something other than sasquatch? I would like to see reliable evidence as much as you, LAL.
LAL said:
I'd heard about the DNR workers spotting a pair crossing a meadow some years later. It showed up on the BFRO site. So, what have we here? Mass hysteria for seven?

Is it anecdotal or reliable evidence?

Ridiculous, IMHO, is to believe the "Minesota Iceman" is a real hominid. Ridiculous, IMHO is to rely on "evidence" provided by known hoaxers such as Marx and Freeman. I could go on, but its just not worthy of the effort.

It's not ridiculous when that belief bolsters your self-image as an 'outside the box' thinker and thusly galvinizes a sense of purpose in trying to show how others are 'stuck in the box'. No, it's not ridiculous, it's motivating. Kinda like faith.
 
kitakaze said:
Thank you. Is Sweaty an adolescent?
Click to expand...

People who post like adolescents want to know if he's an adolescent? Was that idea borrowed from Huntster's thread or was it thought of independently?

If he wants me to post his age, I'm sure he'll give me permission.
 
kitakaze said:
If she genuinely wanted to address the point, she would have. She chose to be coy. No offence, LAL, it's not the first time.
Click to expand...

Is he still on that? In order to do a thorough search, I'll have to unfilter him again and I'm not inclined to do that at this time. I regret it's come to this. I used to enjoy the debates with him.

It's too bad using "Ignore" doesn't mean the filtered ones have to ignore me too.

When I have time and inclination, I'll search more myself. I may be able to remember more phrases from the post. With not all posts indexed yet, further searching at this time may be futile.
 
Shall we try to get back on track?

Any new comments on DY`s footprints pics?

Shall I pose another question for you all?

Have you ever sat naked on sand or mud?

In case you did, any of you noticed any impressions created by your genitalia in the substrate?

If you did not (or just never bothered to check your butt`s impression), do you think recognizable impressions from your genitals were created?

No, I will not ask why you sat naked on the mud or sand...

You weren't asked for his age LAL, just confirmation whether he's an adolescent or not. (Heaven forbid LAL should disclose info that would weaken her arguments).

LAL, in my opinion you've demonstrated a lack of ethics, an unwillingness to provide proof for claims, an eagerness to embellish, support for trollish behavior, an emotional attachment for most things bigfooty, and blatant hero-worship. Your credibility couldn't get any lower.

Yes, good suggestion.

kitakaze's original statement, in post #1442:
Willful dishonesty, mistaken identity, or faulty memory are likely explanations given that Joyce claims to have seen a creature for which there is no reliable evidence.

This is my post with the partial quote of it, #1443:

What makes them LIKELY?

Note: kitakaze will not be able to answer this simple question.

Exactly how was the meaning of your statement changed by my partial quote?

This is what I said earlier today:
Show me an example of one of my partial quotes in which the meaning of what that person said was changed.

I did not....and still don't....see "a creature for which there is no reliable evidence" as a full explanation as to why those other explanations should be considered likely.

The only reason you can give for them being "likely explanations" is "because there is no reliable evidence for Bigfoot".
What is your definition of "reliable evidence"? I can't find it in your previous posts right now.

I asked you this question concerning your analysis of the "faulty memory" scenario.....
what do you think are the chances...the odds...the probability that there is a "SHARED faulty memory" involved in this case?

Can you answer it?

If I had the film, I would offer it as evidence. Ed's nearly 6'4" and had to jump to equal the strides. The prints went up inclines "like two machines" that the people had to climb. Would that be easy to fake? In snow? Two jumping animals - and what animals would these be?- would have had to have jumped in near unison for seven miles. I think aliens can be safely ruled out.

There were other events in the area that spring, a sighting backed up by print evidence and other trackways. It was the worst winter in 85 years and other animals were coming down from higher elevations in search of food. These events were investigated by law enforcement and even the super-sceptical René Dahinden.

Since it didn't get a lot of publicity, it doesn't seem to get discussed much on message boards.

If bigfoot report/claim is investigated by a well-known bigfooter like Dahinden, but doesn't generate a lot of publicity, what does that tell you?
