It is impossible. I've concluded that the reason why there are so many conflicting aspects of FET is that no one model could possibly explain everything FET lacks compared to RET. And there is simply too much that RET explains perfectly that FET has to strain to explain (and often in a completely illogical manner).
I've decided that the search for such a concept is entirely vain, and I don't want to go down the route of Ponce de Leon, searching my whole life for something that in all likelihood does not exist. So it is with great sadness and exhaustion that I give up.
I've also come to the conclusion that much of the "evidence" purportedly backing up FET is taken as dogma by the FEers on this site, which ironically is what they were claiming to rail against in the first place. A round earth has tons of evidence backing it up. A flat earth has only appearances and the flawed experiments of an irrelevant "scientist" 150 years ago backing it up.
I am an REer once again, and will be until an FEer (
any FEer, including Tom) can provide something conclusive that disproves RET. For the time being, though, RET is elegant, it explains a lot that FET can't explain, and it makes perfect sense. Unless that changes I can't in good conscience call myself an FEer.
I will still mess with the noobs.
