Investigate whether it presents actual evidence, and whether that evidence supports the claims it advances. That kind of thing. It is a very basic skill, peacegirl. It starts with actually reading the articles you post, instead of just blindly copying and pasting them. You should start doing that.

I certainly hope it is totally clear to everyone what I am doing, peacegirl. I think it is. That is very much the point. I haven't made any effort to conceal it, and indeed have gone to some lengths to make sure that it's completely transparent. It rather has to be - do you understand why?

It is good that you are asking these questions, peacegirl. Asking questions is an important part of doing your due diligence. I hope you have found my answers helpful.

You haven't analyzed my father's book with the kind of critical analysis that it deserves. Just because he didn't use the scientific method, you are not even interested in knowing what his observations were, and more importantly, what his reasoning was. Is that the sound of a true steward? You have tried very hard to turn this book into a mockery, but truth always wins. Your conclusion that his observations don't matter, is false but there is no convincing you to even take the first step and read the book. His claims can be tested. They are not unfalsifiable. You have not done your due diligence chuck.
