Here is the definition of ignorance: a lack of knowledge, understanding, or education : the state of being ignorant.
Do you see anywhere that it says "hard, cold, facts" only?
This author of research on Skinwalker Ranch does not lack knowledge, understanding, or education on the subject.
It may not be your "cup of tea", but others find it extremely interesting.
i take your point. valid point.
theres other parts to the definition of ignorance : lack of knowledge, lack of education,unenlightenment, illiteracy;
lack of intelligence, stupidity,foolishness, idiocy.
.......
my point is this,
its not just lack of knowledge. so with all the knowledge we have, education, technology available for research, previous examples of other
inquisitive minds who looked for answers rather than guess and speculate and accept them as truths for discussion on spurious forums; i really think
in 2016, we need to eliminate words like mysterious and strange if we hope for constructive insights.
now, how about. hey look at this rock formation which looks like a 2. doesn anyone think it might be the angle of view, shadows, or maybe a series of
numbers were layed out and the 2 is the one remaining.
but it reads like this:
strange number 2... lets speculate and draw conclusions and blindly accept as truth.
to each their own.
it would be easier for me to convince people of 'strange and mysterious' things than it would to convince them what i told them was bull in the
first place.
i have seen this happen. some idiot goes around saying he was taken by 'strange' things (aliens), then says he was lying, and the same whom easily
believed him have a hard time disbelieving what person x claimed.
now, i prefer to pick and choose which definition of ignorance is applicable here. because were not in the 14th century where ' hear say' is
considered truth, or dragon stories. i say its idiocy. because i can start my car using my smart phone, i cant throw words like strange around anymore
because i KNOW there is a logical explanation.
