That's not true. Lessans didn't start out with any assumptions which he then had to find support for.

He didn't say Lessans, he said YOU. You are the Flat Earther-like person, not Lessans

If I'm a flat earther that would make Lessans a flat earther too. He is making an indirect accusation.

Not really. I am talking about the standards of evidence that you apply and expect other people to apply.
The book does not seem to feel it needs any evidence at all.

Again, you're using evidence in a very narrow way Vivisectus. You are throwing out his observations (remember the description of the unknown animal I gave as an analogy?) just because he didn't come to these conclusions your way. You are going to have to widen your criteria to allow his observations to be heard before assuming it is hogwash.
