Now from an outsider point of view, at times the thread can do itself and IT no favours when it accepts any and all pro-IT evidence, irrespective of content, and dismisses any anti-IT evidence, irrespective of value.
But at its worst, this mentality lets the thread down badly. Some of the stuff suggested as pro-IT is (imo) complete garbage, and it makes the whole thing look worse as a result. You guys may not care because you're already convinced of IT, but there are plenty of people who lurk on this thread yet hardly, or even never, post. If you decide on any evidence principally on the check-box value of if it's pro- or anti- IT, then imo you can sometimes hurt the theory pretty badly.
What a lot of people don't understand is that there is not much point saying "
Oh look I found something that could or could not be interpreted as IT evidence" everytime we find something. There are a few reasons for this:
1. It would be a bit redundant; most people in the thread know that.
2. A lot of it is just for fun - since we've already found most of the big points.
3. We're at the point where we are looking at many things that may be nothing because we have found so much already. Is some a meaningless coincidence? Sure. But we don't know what (as of yet).
4. "From an outsider point of view" Well, most of the people here are not outsiders. I'd recommend outsiders read the OP or ask questions before judging. If that's way too hard for them then I don't really care for their company here anyway.
Anyone want to add anything to that?
