If you want to pursue critical thinking, what are the explanations for the various discrepancies in his races?
I see on the marathoninvestigation site the Dr. has been given opportunities to explain these suspicious discrepancies and either hasn’t or provided explanations that are contradicted by hard facts.
- inopinatus 7y agoI have no comment on the incriminatory data points. My comment is on the incorrect inference being drawn for a specific non-incriminatory one.
- jmull 7y agoIt doesn’t make sense to take that comment out of context, though. I sounds like you are trying to do that, but it doesn’t make sense and that’s probably why many people don’t see your comment as valid.
- hitekker 7y agoThe GP saw a chance to denigrate someone, took it, and when others questioned the motivations behind the denigration, he or she retreated to some kind of weird psuedo-objectivity. >Inferentially speaking, this remark says more about you than the data point does about the accused Shortly after: >It's why I specifically called that out and nothing more Self-righteousness is a weird thing.
- inopinatus 7y agoNope. Happy to stand by the original claim that the specific data point quoted was meaningless and everything that flows from that about the quality of judgment for those believing it was, in contrast, definitive of guilt. “Nothing more” refers to consideration of any other evidence. As for “retreating into objectivity” I’d say I was far from it when subsequently upping the emotional ante with the descriptor of a “braying lynch mob”, which is how I really feel about the peanut gallery. Luke 6:37 applies recursively to all of us.
