A physicist explains ghosts in our digital reality

[Magical Realist]

The reason reading your posts inspires angst and bile is simple - you attempt to pass your pseudoscience and hysterics off as irrefutable fact, then get pissy whenever someone proves you wrong (or you choose to simply ignore evidence that contradicts your claims).

Your actions have painted you as intellectually dishonest, a bigot, a crybaby, and generally an all-around unpleasant member of this community. If that is a bitter pill to swallow, tough shit - that's the truth. You want to change the truth, then change how you act. Quit ignoring evidence you don't like. Quit throwing a temper-tantrum every time someone says something you disagree with. Quite lying, quite plagiarizing, and quit quote-mining.

LOL! Trolling insults and slurs from another moderator. Yawn...

James and Bells? Are you witnessing this?

LOL! Trolling insults and slurs from another moderator. Yawn...

Hardly trolling or insulting... although, given your posting history, I can see where you would find the truth insulting *shrug*

Your saltiness is not my concern, nor do I really care - you WILL adhere to the same rules as everyone else, and you WILL be judged against the same rules as everyone else.

If you want the right to insult people with your ignorance, dishonesty, and dangerous spew (such as your anti-vax bullshit), then the rest of the community will have the right to "insult you" by pointing out when you are acting like a goddamn doughnut.

“They came running up here in such a panic, and even if we staged it they could have not all run together like that. They came up here like a living snake, we were in a staff meeting and we just heard them screaming and screaming… A child cannot make that up.” – Teacher from the school

Excellent.
This just shows that even the "witnesses" to the witnesses can't even get the story straight.
So much for reliability.

Wow..So now the teachers are lying too? Everybody's lying. Maybe Zimbabwe doesn't even exist eh? So how do you manage to get thru your day in your paranoid little world where everybody's lying all the time? I think I'd just as soon live in an alien-haunted universe.

How do you get through a day where everybody in science is lying? Where you cannot trust those who are in charge of our safety in food, travel, architecture, etc...? Since, after all, you deem that "science has done nothing for us"...

How does it feel to know that nobody is buying the bullshit MR?

Oh, you're making things up again.
I didn't say lying. (Which sort of suggests that any paranoia involved is yours).
But the fact there's (at least) two different stories on how the kids responded gives cause for concern over the reliability of the statements.

Right..So now I'm lying too. That was sort of expected I guess...

So if something's not a lie, but isn't true either, what is it?

 

[Kittamaru]

So, you claim that Dywyddyr is lying? Kindly point out WHERE he said that the teachers were lying.

 

[Dywyddyr]

Right..So now I'm lying too.

Your paranoia is showing.
Where have I said, or implied, that you're lying (about this - we won't go into your previous dishonesty)

That was sort of expected I guess...

So if something's not a lie, but isn't true either, what is it?

Oh yeah, my bad.
Because it's a well-known fact that if someone says something that disagrees with another person's view of events one of them must be lying.
I mean, being mistaken, misremembering, that sort of thing couldn't EVER happen. Could it?
Deliberate falsehood HAS to be the only explanation.

Please tell me how YOU account for the FACT that two different teachers gave two different versions of events.

Or it could be that the reporter made a mistake (honest or otherwise).
I note the quote I gave named the teacher in question. The quote you gave didn't.

Right..So the reporter is lying now..This is getting tedious and boring..Moving on.

Whenever someone gets an answer wrong on a quiz show, it's because they're lying, right MR?

 

[Dywyddyr]

Right..So the reporter is lying now.

Again, that's not what I said.
It appears that you'd rather lie about what I've written than address the actual point.
But I will repeat my question: how do YOU account for the two different versions from teachers about the kids' behaviour?

[Dywyddyr]

And a non-answer from MR.
You DID notice the word "deliberate" in there?
How about "intent"?
Or, in your world is it still a lie if the intent of deception doesn't exist?
If making a wrong statement was non-deliberate?

 

[Daecon]

And how does that relate to my question, MR?

Oh look, it doesn't. That must mean that you're LYING, right?

 

[Dywyddyr]

Maybe, given that MR practises deliberate deception and misrepresentation so often, what he means by "lying" is "disagreeing with him".

 

[Magical Realist]

LOL! So desperate to trap me in something. Are these the crucial petty victories that give your lives meaning? Take up bowling. It's better for your heart.

Still can't answer my question?
As for "trapping you" why would we bother?
(Paranoia again...)
You've already - abundantly - shown yourself to be lacking in honesty and personal/ intellectual integrity.

 

[Kittamaru]

Right..So the reporter is lying now..This is getting tedious and boring..Moving on.

Where did Dywyddyr say that the reporter was lying? Quote, immediately, or retract your libel.

Irrelevant, red herring. You are attempting to shunt the discussion away from your FABRICATION by posting a definition.

LOL! So desperate to trap me in something. Are these the crucial petty victories that give your lives meaning? Take up bowling. It's better for your heart.

The only thing "petty" here is your attempted dishonesty.

Right..So now I'm lying too. That was sort of expected I guess...

So if something's not a lie, but isn't true either, what is it?

Do you really not know? I find it hard to believe you can be that stupid/ignorant as to NOT know that something can be WRONG or INCORRECT without being either Truth or a Lie...

Aren't you even slightly ashamed of your blatant dishonesty MR?
