Especially on this site it shouldn't be a valid discussion. I'd there a sci-fi group? It belongs there.

@barjoe thank you for illustrating my point about the hostility.

Should something break on this subject, and I mean serious revelations about it, I have every expectation that the strident hostiles on anything to do about this subject -- perhaps including yourself-- will suddenly remember how open-minded they were about it, and open to discussion and evidence. Such is the power of reconstructive retrospective human memory. As for myself, I would merely laugh.

An ad hominem judgement based on studied ignorance and confirmation bias is not a good look. Projection?

@racocn8 Ad hominem judgements are completely valid when talking about scientific impossibilities like afterlife, breaking time continuum, psychics, clairvoyance, Santa Claus, God and...little green men.

@racocn8 That goes for ghosts, goblins and things that go bump in the night.

You are probably right about 70% of those. The other 30%, are more likely to be possible. Saying they are all absolutely impossible is an assertion of arrogant hubris or worse. But then, you just admitted to embracing fallacy...

@racocn8 when it comes to the supernatural or actual aliens roaming the earth. when it comes to psychics. when it comes to an afterlife. when it comes to ghosts, goblins and little green men. So where it this 30% you're talking about?

Huh?
