Hello! I also found this place randomly. Either that, or long enough ago that I forgot

I don't know what rue means.

[Svartalf]

regret... I love old and unusual words

[problEmglasses69]

I hope you don't mind an unusual character around here. I probably disagree with just about all of you on everything.

We are open to evidence....not so much to unsupported opinion

You're as subject to wishful thinking as anybody else. I should hope you can acknowledge that. With that in mind what is evidence anyway?

(My coffee's really nice by the way. How's yours?)

[Ironclad]

We probably disagree with eachother here quite a lot, I'm sure you'll fit in. Unless you disagree lol
Welcome to Ratskeps

Let's make this interesting. Name some things and I'll tell you if I agree or not.

[Macdoc]

The earth is warming and we're responsible.

Recall ...evidence.

Disagree. I'm not going to bother playing the evidence game, it's a waste of time. Next one.

[SafeAsMilk]

While not every topic needs empirical evidence, Earth's warming and our responsibility certainly does. If that sounds wrong to you, and no evidence will convince you otherwise, then you're probably in the wrong place. There's plenty of other places on the internet that are homes for content-free opinions that would probably be more up your alley.

Well since you're so interested in talking about evidence (which, as I said, I am not), why don't you show some evidence of your claim. But don't expect a debate about your evidence.

[Macdoc]

Well quite frankly your unsupported opinion is worth nothing more than a fart in the wind. Don't play in traffic...evidence is, you might get run over

You can use the search function to find the relevant threads if you ever decide to educate yourself on the topic. I wouldn't waste my time presenting the evidence to someone who's unable or unwilling to grasp it. I'm just letting you know that pretty much nobody around here is going to give the slightest shit what your content-free opinion is on this topic, or most others outside of social & fun, so if evidence is something that's beyond you then you may want to move on to greener pastures

Any opinion I have is supported by my conviction, if that's not enough evidence for you, it's still a pretty good argumentum ad auctoritatem.
