And yet I am the only one actually backing up my claims here.You make a mockery of logic.

But we do, based on a preponderance of the evidence sufficient to justify reaching a conclusion, so long as we remain open minded to future, contradictory evidence, should it appear, which it will not, because Emma was not raped.My "stance" is WE DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.
I rebutted that shit before you could even post it. That's how fucking done you are here.He keeps making long winded replies no one is reading because he thinks he can somehow punch his way out of this, but he can't.
You can't fix a fundamentally broken theology like you have, founded on bad reasoning and an inability, despite being an english teacher, to tell the difference between the colloquial definition of the word prove versus the academic, mathematical and scientific definition of the term, by punching back.
The flaw in all your arguments has been exposed. It is irrefutable. There is no argument to be had here.
A lack of absolute proof does not prevent a reasonable conclusion being drawn from the preponderance of the evidence. Period. This is fundamental and inarguable. If you don't like it, build a time machine and go take it up with Aristotle, you fucking moron.
No, you don't.But we do
I've just explained how I interpreted the available information that led me to believe there's a good chance she's telling the truth. It's not a certainty, but reasonable doubt is there.Now either demonstrate the evidence to justify your assertion that she was raped, thus giving us the evidence we would require to change our opinions from the conclusion we have reached based on the evidence as it exists currently, or fuck off.
Your tacit admission that every single word of that was correct is accepted.Holy shit, Jhodi's lost it completely.
This is a lie. All of my beliefs are perfectly reasonable, and I have demonstrated such.1. Ensuring our beliefs are reasonable is the important issue, not that they are 100% perfectly correct all of the time in all cases in all places, since this is not possible anyway. The crux of Tanoomba's argument pits the perfect as the enemy of the good enough
Plenty of evidence has been presented that suggests she is not lying. You're just pretending it's not there because it doesn't suit your narrative. You know, just like creationists do.2. It is not reasonable to believe Emma was raped, because no evidence has been presented to justify the claim that she was raped. The claim that she was raped has not been demonstrated to be a reasonable conclusion based on the evidence presented.
I agree. Therefore, the default reaction to claims that Sulkowicz made false rape accusations is to not believe them unless conclusive evidence supports that claim. It doesn't.3. Whenever we are presented with a claim, the default is not believing, because otherwise we end up believing all sorts of nonsense like the Moon Landings were faked, and 9-11 was a hoax, and Anita wasn't really talking about Hitman.
Not to any outside observers you're not.And yet I am the only one actually backing up my claims here.
Unlike, Jhodi, I've responded to every single challenge leveled at me, patiently and honestly. It's all there. As usual, you're just ignoring reality to push your narrative.Not to any outside observers you're not.
I accept your admission of defeat. Don't worry, maybe you'll get me next time. You just have to stop shutting out all information that goes against your narrative and stop lying through your teeth. That's really your Achille's heel.Again, Tanoomba, this isn't something you can swing your way out of.
Your world view has been deconstructed down to its core fallacies.
Its over.
Deal with it.
There's nothing to "swing out of", Jhodi.Again, Tanoomba.
This isn't something you can swing your way out of.
Your worldview has been deconstructed down to its core fallacies.
Its over.
Your form of argumentation will never work with anyone here ever again who is familiar with this discussion.
You're done.
Start progressing through the stages of grief and mourning and deal with it.
