A statement by Einstein that he believes all people who posted online as Time Travelers are fakers becomes a debate about gravity. Equally amusing to me is that I was able to follow where Einstein was coming from in his position on gravity. Not that I don't follow what the people trying to teach him otherwise were coming from.
I guess my comment would be to Einstein. Your reasoning on the burden of proof is similar to other people's misunderstanding of inertia. If you gave it thought I am sure you will be able to see why a fake 20 dollar bill does not prove all 20 dollar bills are fake.
I do wonder what your motive for the debate on time travelers was. You seem fairly assured on your position. I can see why you chose not to accept any of the counter claims that were presented to you (not to discredit the reasons that the others had as reasons to believe as they do).
So I suppose I will leave with the question. What did you hope to find from the debate? Or was there something you wished would happen from having it?
