"Exactly how many times have you observed wild monitors in their natural habitat? Surely you must have vast experience tracking these animals to have formed such strong opinions."



I was not aware that observing monitors in the wild was a mandatory prerequisite for being able to ask for proof of a statement which goes against all of what is currently known and accepted by science.



So because I have not observed monitors in the wild, you are suggesting that I must believe all of what is dictated to me, regardless of its source, validity or truthfulness?



While this train of thought may be fine for someone who is of a spiritual background, being a firm believer in the scientific method , I remain a skeptic, and thus require proof of something before I accept it as fact.



Strong Opinions? Not really. I simply choose to wait for proof before believing such a claim.



Still waiting....................
