Remember how you claimed that if someone invented a functional bionic eye, that would disprove Lessans' claims? It was quickly pointed out that they already exist.

Your response was not to weasel, it was to repeatedly deny that you had ever made the claim in the first place. When your own lies were quoted back to you, you did what you normally do when confronted with proof that you were lying: you changed the subject and hoped no one would notice.


Or how about when you spent pages insisting that cameras see in delayed time (because they have no brains), even though our eyes do not? Then, when you discovered that you had misinterpreted the Holy Book of Lessans, you instantly changed your story to insisting that cameras, too, see in "real time." When confronted about this change of opinion, your response was to repeatedly deny that you had ever claimed cameras see in delayed time.

Again, when confronted with your own words, proving that you were lying, you changed the subject and hoped that no one would notice.
Again, I was thinking on the spot and I made mistakes, but that still doesn't translate to this claim being wrong. Why are you doing this? We're not in a court of law where a clever lawyer can make a case over something trivial in order to create reasonable doubt.

Of course I will support Lessans because none of these accusations prove him wrong. Why shouldn't I support him, I believe he was right.

I never have admitted that his claim was ludicrously false. I may have said that from their perspective, it seems ludicrously false. But I still believe he is right and that there is an alternate way of looking at it. I am allowed to give my version of why I don't think any of these charges against him are actually fair. I certainly will not agree with people just to stop them from accusing me of Lying for Lessans. What a joke!

At this point, you can say whatever you want, I really don't care. All you are doing is trying to paint a picture of me that is false, and in so doing trying to discredit my father as well. But let me repeat that none of your accusations are true, and more importantly, none of them discredit Lessans' claim. Anyone with half a brain will be able to see through this group attack.

Now see, you're either deliberately lying here or demonstrating your lack of reading ability. Either is possible, since you do both so often.


Of course you're never going to admit that Lessans was wrong. That's the whole point -- no matter how often and how thoroughly Lessans' claims are disproved, you're never going to admit that.



What I said is that you have a habit of introducing "facts" that you think support Lessans, "facts" that are flat-out wrong. When it's pointed out that these "facts" are untrue, your typical response is to accept the correction, wait until a page or two has gone by, then repeat the claim which you've already acknowledged is false, as if people won't notice what you've done.

That is deliberate lying on your part. And you do it so very often.

Granted, it's possible that you aren't consciously lying; it's possible that your commitment to Lessans' claims is so strong that your brain automatically expunges every piece of information that contradicts Lessans' claims. It's not as if we haven't seen abundant evidence that you do exactly that.


But to spend page after page saying one thing, only to turn around and then insist that you'd never said any such thing -- even as your own words are quoted back to you -- is not "weaseling" or "waffling" or "making mistakes." That is straight-up lying.


So I repeat: you're welcome to your willful ignorance and your delusions and your fanatical insistence that Lessans was incapable of error. But when you lie -- as you so often do -- you will be confronted.
