I often have many conversations going at once, and at present I’m working on both the web site content and a speech. So I do not follow your context or argument.
Truth is the only alighment. Everthing else is ignorance, error, bias, or deceit.

But my claims are TESTIFIABLE and yours are not.
If it’s untestifiable that means any truth claim is falsified.

You are trying to make an excuse for the existence of a superme deity rather than stating you can testify to your claims.

I am not here to convince you. You cannot falsify what I stated. Becaue you lack the knowledge of the subject matter to do so. And you’re using GSRRM to force me to educate you instead of you doing the work to produce a contrary argument. You are doing this because consciously or not, you do not have an argument other than your own ignorance, when your ignorance violates the principle of absence of evidence is not equal to evidence of absence.

I don’t know why. You supplied the best answers.
So, if I posted the correct answers, what would that accomplish vs posting the at least partly wrong answers and letting the audience work through the question?

His statements do not match the court’s statements. Let’s just say that.
I was there, down in Podil during the day, and in Maydan at night after the shootings – on the way up the hill. And we had constant videos coming out all over social media and the press – and friends for that matter. Bullet direction claims are questionable. So, It was obvious who was doing the shooting. I don’t think anyone bought into the russian sniper nonsense. What Yanukovych said or didn’t I dont have insight into. When he fled, I tracked his plane to dubai. But he had fled though toward russia. We were right in that suspicion. This fellow is not someone I can take seriously.

No ideology is never required. Not true whatsoever.
Systems of Reasoning
1. Reason is required for comparison and wayfinding .
2. A paradigm is necessary for reasoning.
3. A methodology is required for reasoning (adversarial competition) in paradigm.
4. So, all that is necessary is a paradigm, vocabulary, logic, and grammar for reasoning within any paradigm. 5. Paradigms differ only in permissible and impermissible content.
6. The spectrum of paradigms evolves from man as the measure of all things(anthropocentrism), to the measure of all things independent of man (operationalism)
Ideology refers only to the tools of political influence in the democratic age, and rquires no internal or external consistency, only the ability to motivate people.
The spectrum of methods of reasoning (“truth”)
Operationalism (computation from first principles)
Science (falsification, calculus)
Empiricism (observables, naturalism)
Rationalism (reason and naturalism)
Natural Philosophy (external correspondence, naturalism)
Logic (verbal/textual, induction)
Philosophy (resoning, preference, truth)
Theology
Mythology
Anthropocentrism
Embodiment
The Spectrum of Fictionalisms (“Deception”)
Physical: Magic -> Pseudoscience
Calculative: Gambling (Baiting) -> Mathiness (innumeracy)
Verbal: Sophistry -> Philosophy
Imaginary: Occult -> Theological
Emotional: Agitation -> Ideology
Overloading: Loading,framing,obscuring -> Lying
Obstruction: Denialism (denial) -> Reversal (reversal, projection)
There you go.
no more lies.

I do not overrate science. I only rate what it is possible to claim as true without lying. This is not to say that there isn’t wisdom in conceptst hat have survived the centuries. But those concepts are not those that consist of the untestifiable, but instead, consist of the…

WHY DON’T WE TOLERATE ARGUMENT FROM THEOLOGY?
Bob,
You will find that while most of us practice Christian values, and some of us participate in Christian religion, (we have members and followers of pagan, christian, catholic, orthodox, jewish, muslim, hindu, chinese and various other east asian religions) from absolutely secular to quite devoted, that we do not tolerate theological arguments as truth claims – instead only as examples of correspondence between the truth and the wisdom captured in various religions.
We work in the sciences of cooperation, morality, ethics, testimony, epistemology, and apply that to the natural law – the rules necessary for the harmony of all those sciences. Every religion has at least some consistency with Natural Law or it would not survive.
But if we are to appeal to God, and to the laws of god, we find the evidence of his hand in the universe, not in those of ancient peoples lacking our knowledge of the universe at all scales.
And certainly not when they appeal to sophistry, magic, pseudosciencde, or the supernatural which are simply admissions of one’s failure to discover and understand the laws of the universe – which must be, if there is a god, god’s laws.
If there is a god, then the natural law, as we explain it, as the sum total of the sciences we have discovered – is his command.
