    Funny that you pointed out that my questioning of what you claimed was valid, but I was showered with downvotes.

    Amazing.

      The downvotes are because it seemed that you were asking in bad faith. You said “I believe it is true”, but now you say (admit) that you were questioning it.

        Confirmation bias is a hell of a drug; I always question whether I simply want something to be true or whether I have the evidence that it is true.

        It’s scary that self reflection is viewed as bad faith.

          Well, there you are again. You said “my questioning of what you claimed”. That isn’t self reflection. If you aren’t asking in bad faith, you need to spend more time on your wording.

            You just quoted me saying “I believe it’s true” but now you are saying that I’m not self reflecting because I noted that another also believes it to be true and they originally stated it.

            You keep accusing me of acting in bad faith, but I’m beginning to think that this is maybe a projection.

      No, I didn’t validate your question, just clarified why you were confused. “A magnitude less” is hyperbole and therefore clearly an opinion.

        ? You said you had no evidence for it and it was just how you feel. I asked if you had evidence for it.

        This seems to very clearly validate my question and reveal that I wasn’t confused.
