      It's not a matter of believing... It's a matter of entertaining the thought...

      As opposed to shooting it down at the first sight of it.

      Big difference.

      Some of your dreams must be so exciting...

      Standing in line at the bank? Buying a t-shirt at the gap? Walking down the street to the convenience store?

      What is your opinion of "open minded"?

      We tend to like to shoot down insane ideas. Helps keep us, you know... sane. Trying to shoot an idea down is the best way to test its validity. How it performs under fire is a good indication.

      No, the insane crap in this case would be "I've not seen something so strange. Clearly, aliens." Open minded means accepting anything is possible, remembering that one is only human and bound to be wrong.

      On the internet nothing can be proved either way so there is no point to arguing against it, other than oneupsmanship.

      Something Mark75 and others here revel in, for whatever reason...

      I would if you'd just do me the favor of leaving my threads free from your bile...

      It's like staring at a bug squashed stain on the windshield of your car. It's an eyesore that bothers you until you clean it off...

      A normal person would just stay clear of topics they want nothing to do with. You trolls, on the other hand...

      Well, he did say believe of it as you wish, he wasn't saying he believes it is aliens. But if you ment just in general then ok.

      Open minded means accepting anything is possible, remembering that one is only human and bound to be wrong.
      Good, that's exactly what i think it is.Although it's impossible to be 100% open minded if you wanna be taken seriously. Some things you just cannot accept, not even a little bit. Then again there are people who are never open minded on these forums, and think they are always right.

      There is a "big difference" between wishing you had x-men powers and even fantasizing about having them and actually thinking that they are attainable.

      Plus, I'd prefer shopping dreams to tinfoil hat tv dinners any night of the week.

      I've skimmed through this thread. ppl like you and seis should lighten up on some of these threads. Even if they are kind of fringe and very hard to prove... Don't you have better things to accomplish? Are you that unsatisfied with your REAL LIFE that you have go on a internet forum just shove down someone elses throat just how better you are than everybody else?

      Locking on request. If another mod wants to clean up be my guest.
      I've resigned anyway, so this is my last mod
