Merged Their Return

I DID say I hadn't confirmed anything.

Why should I be held responsible for someone else's joke/lie?

Well, let's see:

King of the Americas said:
Psiload just posted that The Olympic Committee just added "a moment skyward" to the Opening Ceremonies, due to Dr. Michio Kaku's suggestion...

I have not confirmed this.

Personally, I couldn't be happier about this, or being in the same mindset as the good Dr.

I feel a little honored that I was on the right track.

SUCK IT SKEPTICS!

Well, you can suck it, as soon as I verify this is actually true.

So, you did say it wasn't confirmed, then you clearly behaved as if you believed it were true. You then paid lip-service to verification, but didn't say you were going to verify whether it was true, but that it was true.

If you got lip service from your girlfriend, you'd consider yourself served wouldn't you?

KotA, did you finally give up after Psiload defecated on your dream? I loved this thread. I'll miss it.

Give up? Because someone said that a famous scientist already accomplished my goal?

Not hardly. One could best describe me as being "stubbornly dedicated" to whatever goal I set my mind to...

Is it trollish to be funny, now?

A while ago you were complaining that no one was taking the discussion seriously.

Then you asked why you should be held responsible for someone else's joke.

I explained why, in all seriousness.

You replied with what you apparently consider to be a joke.

Ergo: Troll.

Can you still not tell the difference between fact and fiction. No famous scientist accomplished your goal - it was a joke.

Yet you do so only by ignoring advice that would save you a great deal of angst.

Even if it isn't laughed at and rejected out of hand, it will be rejected merely by referring to the Olympic Charter.

5. Any form of discrimination with regard to a country or a person on grounds of race, religion, politics, gender or otherwise is incompatible with belonging to the Olympic Movement..​

Referring to a god or gods in a heaven or heavens is discriminatory, not just to many religious beliefs, but also to agnostic and atheist athletes as well as secular nations.​


It is doomed to failure, and not just because of its initial stupidity.

And you say you're NOT a troll?

That's RIGHT. 'I' am NOT a troll.

You on the other hand...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)

Calling someone a troll, when they are trying to have a meaningful exchange could well be considered trolling.

I couldn't count the times people have "trolled" this thread.

I am simply not one to attempt to disrupt other people's serious exchanges, or draw people into emotional responses.

Is there another skeptic-version of trolling I don't know about?

I have no answers for you, and as your questions have little to do with the OP...

King of the Americas said:
So, lets pretend for a moment that all the anecdotes ARE accurate, that history IS a depiction of gods descending from the heavens, and that this is what people are seeing when they witness a U.F.O. The debate is over they exist.
The question is how do we make contact, or otherwise 'invite' them back, so we can all meet face to face?

Is the OP false or is your latest protestation false? Your gods anally probed a dude. It's one of the anecdotes, therefore it's true. That's what you said.
 
King of the Americas said:
Now that "Olympic Charter" thing is new to me... Sorry I missed it.

That is a real obstacle to what I'd like to see happen.

Now some of us (dare I say who?) might think that a person who proposed a mass demonstration at the Olympic opening ceremony, but was unaware of the Olympic Charter, is lacking in organizational and cognitive skills. Oh, perish the thought!

This is the first time I've seen that.

I was able to read it, once I saw it, and I don't know what organization has anything to do with it?
