Why is is so difficult and from YOUR view point so unacceptable that I don't believe this nonsense?

Again. either something is true or false. If I believe it to be false, then naturally the person stating it would not be someone I see as telling the truth. GEESH!!! Is it so unheard of for someone to NOT be telling the truth? People lie all the time. When Clinton's lips moved - he's typically lying. When George Bush states that ILLEGAL immigrants are doing the jobs Americans won't do or that they're here NOT committing crimes and contribute MORE than the tab they run up - GWB is LYING. So you see anyone can spout nonsense and lie. It's really no biggie.

Are you always so intolerant of other views and so SHOCKED that people LIE? Yup. lying is the only rational option here too. Don't worry, U won't try and sell you swamp land in Florida. You believe whatever you want. One thing though, I will not go round and round and round with you rephrasing the same reasons why I see this person as lying. You'll have to do that on your own. I've stated my reasons in many different ways and it's getting old.

Try and have a good day.

You said -- "Yup. lying is the only rational option here too."

Well..., you see..., this is where you're wrong.

Let's grant -- for the sake of discussion -- that it is *nonsense* that someone can *truly* have a premonition like that. You believe (if I've gotten this correct) that there is no such thing as premonitions.

Now, where you're wrong -- is not necessarily in your belief on "premonitions" -- but rather -- in whether someone else can *believe* in something that is wrong (i.e., wrong from your view or perspective).

Namely, there are other people who believe in premonitions. And *therefore* they act upon that belief.

In your mind -- since it's "not true" (i.e., the "existence of premonitions") -- they *have to be lying*.

You've failed to take into consideration that other people don't believe as you do -- and THEREFORE they *can act* on a belief that is different than yours -- and still *not be lying* -- even if what they act upon is not true.

So, that's where you're wrong -- regardless of whether premonitions are real or not.

And thusly, that's why I say I take their "testimony" as truthful. They have no real reason to lie about "concrete things" that happened to them, personally, before Flight 93 occured.
