    I believe they are true because it makes sense, my evidence is word-of-mouth, and various signs that suggest aliens have visited Earth in the past.

    Which is a poor reason, as 'it makes sense' applies to any argument when you ignore evidence contrary. To Christians, Jesus and God but no aliens makes sense. This contradicts your 'it makes sense' argument. If 'it makes sense' is a valid argument, than you must believe contradictory points of view that cannot coexist. Therefore, this argument should, and will be, dismissed.

    So, anecdotal at best? My friend's friend's friend saw a giant T-Rex having sex with your mom. My evidence is word-of-mouth. This argument is self defeating, and therefore dismissed.

    Any sign that 1) the simplest solution with the fewest assumptions that it was aliens and not something else, 2) that not only is it that the fewest assumptions given the data while still accurately portraying what is known, but that on top of this, that the data and conclusion is more likely your supposed aliens, instead of other aliens, 3) are any of these signs completely conclusive in any way towards the conclusions you're drawing, in that there is not reasonable dispute about them?

    Makes a hell of a lot more sense than anything the media tells us. Me believing this is just as valid as believing in God, or following any mainstream religion.

    You do realize that was part of my argument for it being invalid, right?

    HAH!

    Come on, that media scapegoat argument has been done to death. Come up with something original to counter Elendra, even though resistance is futile. Elendra typically wins these through cold, hard logic.

    That's supposed to last a thousand years.
    Part of a machine;
    Unstoppable, as merciless as tidal waves.

    Is this... Normal?
    Sirian soul? The fuck? No. Just no.
