Hi, John.

"What is that?"

Well, to be quite frank, it's exactly what _you_ do. It's also
what I do. It's what anyone does with no facts or evidence or
proof regarding a given situation.

I believe in the possibility of UFOs as well as the possibility
of abductions. However, I do so because of my own internal
beliefs and convictions; neither you nor anyone else has offered
a shred of proof to MAKE me believe. So unless you have
undeniable proof hidden away that has never been shared with
this list, then you are also "being (subjectively) selective
about what parts of any given testimony you give credence to."
After all, what other choice do any of us really have? All of
us, including you, are just guessing. However, we do so using
our own individual belief system based on what's important to
each of us. Leanne simply guesses in a way that "doesn't fit
into your personal world view," as you put it.

Chill out, dude. These are just tiny little words on a CRT.
