New Post: "I Do Listen to the Experts. Do YOU?"

[asteckley]

I don't see ...

I can't respond to many your statements because they are simply declarations that overtly ignore the
explanations I provided. I am not trying to dismiss your responses - I just honestly can't conceive of how to break the logic down any further to make it easier to comprehend.

But I can leave you with the following two points. Of course, whether you choose to think them through or
not is entirely up to you.

1) If the modern forgery theory is "not falsifiable", then the alternative theory of authenticity must
necessarily be "not provable" ... fundamentally.
    (because A=true implies not-A=false)
Yet I suspect some of those who hold your view about the modern forgery theory being not falsifiable still blithely imagine a scenario where the Voynich has been proven to be authentic.

2) Now I'm sure the response by some to the above point (if not by you, by some others) will be
"that's right - we can never know for sure if either is true".
And that's fine if you want to go that way. (There is some truth to it - because evidence is never "absolute";
it always ranges between very weak and very strong.  I believe Rene alluded to the same thing earlier.
Mathematically, it is the reason we have to avoid probabilities being equal to 0.0 or 1.0 because various equations
inevitably blow up. But for practical purposes --i.e. in real life--, reasonable people accept that evidence can be either
strong enough, or weak enough, to provide an acceptable level of "proof" for or against a claim.)
If you don't want to accept evidence in a practical way -- that is, if you instead want to go with the "we can never know for sure if either is true" approach --  then
just be aware that that means there is no conceivable theory about the Voynich, or about anything else,
that is actually falsifiable (or provable).  One can ALWAYS come up with some conceivable explanation and then an
explanation for the explanation, and on and on until someone jumps the shark with "it's just glitch in the matrix".
