Baloney, bologna, Use google yourself.

Let me explain how this works: you make an assertation, the burden is then on you to prove it's true. Otherwise, it remains nothing more than an assertation. There's no shame in that, Lord knows there are plenty on the web. For instance, on another message board I frequent, there's a man who claims the US government uses the Ark of the Covenant to sink invisible enemy ships. Ironically, his defense is similar to yours.

You wanna know this stuff, do some research, don't just resort to "I don't buy that."

Just where did you get the idea that I haven't done research into just this area?

By your response to Pillars, and I quote, " Hmmmm... nope, I don't buy this at all. Give me one instance where a step-parent has been forced to pay for someone else's children.

If, during debate, you cannot respond to the other side, other than to say, "I just don't buy that." You will lose. Why don't you buy it? There are lots of people out there that can verify it for you. If you had researched it, you could have and, I assume, would have explained the reason why you "don't buy it." Without that information, a reasonable reader would assume you just find it hard to believe.

That may be, but I ain't gonna prove it to ya. It doesn't rise to that level of importance. I'm not gonna try to prove that men really did walk on the moon, or that there really was a Jewish holocaust. You gotta do the research and make up your own mind. I have personal experience with it, and that's all your gonna git here.

But thank you for your interest.
