The List of the Blind Monkey is one thing and one thing only: A
collection of goofy arguments actually made by people trying to ignore
or disregard the evidence gathered and presented by Brian Mottershead.
It in no way evaluates that evidence or pronounces guilt.
That is less than the truth! The fact is that you add your own dismissive
comment to each and every line, thus eliminating all. Phil Innes
Of course. All items on the List of the Blind Monkey represent stupid
arguments against Mottershead's material. An argument that wasn't
stupid doesn't make the List.
I'm sorry - you confound two items - the way some factor is raised + your
opinion of the subject. Which was to dismiss the subject absolutely, right?
The idea that these are ideas are stupid, is your commentary, so far 23 of
them. And you do not phrase what you dismiss in the terms they are raised,
but by sarcastic dismmissal, which you can't own as your own action in this.
Now, here's the kicker, Phil. Something you've evidently missed.
Dissing a bunch of stupid arguments against evidence
What does that sentence mean?
(1) Doesn't necessitate the evidence being true or even reasonable
(2) Doesn't preclude the possibility of valid arguments against the
evidence.
(3) Doesn't mean you can get all Paris in a bottle, except by hypothetical
means... by speculation.
I suggest you try your best to come up with reasonable arguments
against Motterhead's findings. I need some fresh items for my List.
You are openly stating your attempt to pursue one course while dismissing
all others.
That is your own standard. You might get over yourself a bit to realise that
it ain't everybody's, and certainly no standard in law, and you are not a
judge and do not represent anything like any legal process. You are a
prosecutor of one point of view - admit it!

I may discuss these issues elsewhere, and obviously have my opinions
based on what I've read thus far, but
The List stands alone, the List stands alone
And it sticks in your craw like a sharp fish bone
The List stands alone
