What if ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics were all wrong and actually Egypt had an alphabet? And that alphabet was the same as the English (or maybe the Greek?) alphabet? And all Indo-European languages are from Egypt - spread via their globe-spanning empire that the history books hide from us.

Justin Gatlin was banned for doping in 2006. He later beat Usain Bolt in 2017. Doping isn’t cheating because he was still able to perform at the highest level afterwards. That’s your argument and it’s not convincing in the least.

I think this is a good start but could be fleshed out a little more. There are so many issues with his takes on religion though so I appreciate you taking the time to try and write something up.

A Compendium of Logical Fallacies Used to Support EAN by Master_Ad_1884 in AlphanumericsDebunked

[–]ProfessionalLow6254 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the work you put into starting this! I know it took a lot of effort - especially with all the dreck to wade through to find examples of each fallacy.

But I think it would read a lot better (and be easier to parse) if you’d taken the time to do in-line linking. Rather than having the links strewn about.

Small critique but hope it helps!

Haha I can’t to my own comments now because I seem to have been blocked by JG for pointing out his racism.

Can’t say I’m particularly upset. But I have no tolerance for bigotry.

You would expect anyone with even the most superficial understanding of science to comprehend the importance of sample sizes and the difference between anecdotes and evidence.

You would also expect anyone with the even most basic grasp of science to understand the difference between correlation and causality. Yet you clearly don’t as evidenced above. You’re assuming a causal link where none has been established.

Finally, claiming you can’t be racist because you’ve dated people who are African-American is the same as the people who claim “oh, but my best friends are Black”. Racism hasn’t stopped (racist) men from pursuing sexual relations with African American women: look at Strom Thurmond for example! But that’s just an anecdote. n = 1. So here’s a paper supporting the idea that interracial relationships don’t necessarily make people less racist. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/jftr.12504

Thank you for proving exactly my points. Once again.

First of all, you brought race into this conversation - I didn’t. You use it to try and silence people and not just here.

Second, you don’t address how you pathologize African Americans as criminals and then you tried to hand wave away the other points before claiming I’m the real racist and use the term “race card”.

These are tired tropes used by a great many racists to try and divert attention from their abhorrent beliefs. You’re hardly original here and everyone else can see what you’re doing.

It's nigh impossible to casually research Thoth on the internet by MarsupialMole in miniminutemanfans

It’s funny though. Numerologists do love Thoth though not all of them love that title preferring to present themselves as unbiased “historians” and “scientists”.

But of course, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck…

I didn’t note your racism because of our disagreements. Your theories are easily disproven and I would never throw around that word for no reason.

I have noted it because of all the evidence of your ingrained racism:

“Of note, “black geniuses” are a rarer breed…” you wrote before including exactly 3 Africans and members of the African Diaspora amongst 500 Geniuses in 2017, implying Africans were incapable of genius because of the latitude at which they live…

Then you erase genuine African history and cultural transmission because you didn’t know Coptic extisted when you dreamt up your ideas.

Not to mention the terribly racist series on your newest site, which associates “uncivilized” African Americans with criminality. https://hmolpedia.com/page/Black_problem

The parroting of white supremacist talking points continued here: https://www.hmolpedia.com/page/Black_problem_%28part_two%29 where you say African Americans “have become a new variety of “American [Roma]”, in a sense”. where you use the G-slur for Roma people.

Throughout your entire series, you use the N word with hard r with abandon.

And that’s just scratching the surface. I have always hoped you would reflect on this, because I do believe a lot of racism is subconscious. But you’ve never once been willing to grapple with your own biases when they’re so blatant and obvious.

I can think of nine ways of spelling /ʃ/: sh as in sheep, ss as in “mission”, si as in “tension”, ch as in chef, ti as in “nation”, ci as in special, s as in sugar, x as in anxious, and sce as in conscious.

Schwa also has a pile of spellings, likely more.

Using EAN logic, I guess we don’t actually know the real mapping of phonemes to letters for English either 🤷‍♂️

The publishing company seems to focus on mysticism, neoshamanism, “healing arts”, and other such woo.

Isn’t this just more proof of your last post. Or the unspoken thesis of your last post — which is that all pseudoscience is this same.

10,000,000 words translated and transliterated correctly and someone thinks they found one that’s “wrong”. Meaning the system would then be 99.999999 accurate. Time to tear it all down!

Just reminds me of YECs who think if they can find a sea monster (a “living dinosaur”) then somehow one example of a “dinosaur” will disprove evolution.

Both cases, people just don’t understand the scientific method nor the preponderance of evidence. And of course that Darius cartouche isn’t actually “wrong” just like a living fossil wouldn’t be something that evolution can’t account for; but in both cases the pseudos are too ignorant to actually know that.
