Do you have to have personal access to everything in order to believe anything is real? For instance, you believe there is a dome over the earth and the sun is a projection from some crystals and such buried in a hole at the north pole. Have you personally had access to and verified those two physical things?
It doesn't matter what I believe.
You do not know for sure that nuclear bombs, exist.
You are happy to accept they do because you are happy to follow mass opinion that was garnered through storylines by so called authoritative people.

I know that there is a tremendous amount of evidence that nuclear weapons do exist. From eyewitnesses to video and everything inbetween.
There's a tremendous amount of evidence that Santa exists. Does he exist?

Uh. Citation needed, for Santa.

There is zero evidence for a dome over the earth and a sun as a projection from some carbonite crystals and such buried in a hole at the north pole. Yet, you believe that without ever having witnessed it yourself nor any other human ever having observed these things. So I don't understand your contradiction.
I'm not asking you to believe my thoughts. I'm being asked.......no.....told to believe in nuclear bombs by authority and peer pressure.


On the one hand you dismiss something that has mountains of evidence, yet on the other, fully embrace things that have zero evidence.
And yet you dismiss something that has mountains of evidence, in Santa. Right?

Have you ever applied your own logic to your belief systems? Like since you can't verify a dome and carbonite sun and no one else has in the history of humanity that perhaps they don't exist?
If you or anyone else doesn't believe they exist then they don't exist.
I certainly don't believe in a spinning ball we supposedly walk upon, so I have to try and work out what it is we are existing as part of and this is where I'm at.

When I start telling you it's official, then you can have a real go at me...but not before you prove the world you believe you're living on.

Well I'm was eyewitness to starfish prime, we that help you?
I was 12 at the time and saw the flash.

Perhaps another area where we differ is the ability to tell the difference between folk tales and science.

  For example, neither you or I will ever get a chance to go to the bottom of the Marianas trench, but we can chose to believe or disbelieve the few videos and the people who say that they have been there.
I think logic is enough to dictate the trench is impossible for human travel but you accept it or believe it because you trust the storylines, even though that storyline was told and sold by a film maker.
What logic dictates that it's impossible?  Are you saying that it's an engineering problem that can't be solved with enough money and resources?  BTW, the filmmaker wasn't the first one to reach the bottom.

I am unaware of any evidence that shows that Santa exists. Just like you, me and the rest of humanity are unaware of any evidence revealing a domed earth with a carbonite projecting sun at the north pole. Now if I'm mistaken and you do have some evidence of Santa and a domed carbonite projecting sun earth, do lay it on us.

Sorry, intelligent, sound, normal people like me test new things in laboratories, etc. to avoid hurting people.
But they did test the bombs in laboratories.  It just so happens that those particular laboratories were remote locations to avoid hurting people, just like intelligent, sound, normal people would set up.


There has never been any confirmation or test of explosive fission in a laboratory. All laboratory work was done at Los Alamos, NM, 1942/5 between skiing.
A full scale test was done further south but it was just TNT being blown up.
 It seems you have to do it in a remote, secret location.

Only criminals do it otherwise in secret locations, etc.
The fact that we know that many of those tests occurred at Bikini Atoll and the Nevada test sites proves that they are not secret locations.  Again, there were plenty of tourists who went to Las Vegas to watch the test blasts, so it's kinda hard to keep a location like that a secret.
You know that tests occurred at Bikini Atoll and the Nevada test sites? Maybe you heard about it from someone but it does not convince me.

Yep...maybe.....BUT.....it all depends on who's listening to folk tales and believing it's science.
I believe nothing and question everything, so the folk tales become listening leisure not a belief system without back up.

Definitely an engineering problem as it stands...as well as no proof of any trench.

There's plenty of evidence on TV that Santa exists just as there is for nuclear bombs and a spinning globe....etc.

The major issue is in understanding which of them are physically verified as being real, rather than a reliance on TV, papers and word of mouth, evidence.

It seems none of us are privy to what the reality is but many people seem to accept whatever is told to be their reality, without physical verification...and this is key.

Christmases 1973/4 I was dressed up as Santa for the Scandinavian community in Yokohama/Japan. I moved around in my old Toyota car. I have forgotten the model. I visited plenty Scandinavian children's homes, whose parents insisted I had to have a drink to carry on and all went well. Plenty Japanese in cars and on pavements observed my show and gave me directions to return home and sober up.

I suppose that it depends on how you define "laboratory".  I see no reason why the Nevada Test Site and Bikini Atoll can't be considered laboratories if experiments were performed there.

You know that tests occurred at Bikini Atoll and the Nevada test sites? Maybe you heard about it from someone but it does not convince me.

Again, it boils down to what "real proof" would you accept?  People do incredible things and go to exotic places all the time.  Do you deny all such claims?  Remember that there is a difference between doubt and denial.

Most people have never completed a marathon, but I say that I've completed 6 of them.  Do you believe me or do I need to prove it?  If so, then what proof would you accept?

Thanks for asking. At my website I present my findings with evidence under my own name. Nothing is secret. Some of my scientific papers have been peer reviewed. Everything is easy to verify.
My best finding is that double hull is not the best solution for oil tankers as most collision damages occur only above waterline, etc. The US Department of Homeland Security/USCG thinks that most collision damages are located below waterline down at the bilge (20 meters depth for a VLCC), etc, etc.
Another finding of mine is that structures do not collapse from top down by gravity 911-style and becomes dust. I have been invited to US institutions of high learning to explain it but FBI or CIA stopped it.
Re topic I have proven that nuclear bombs do not exist, at least Russian communist ones. They were propaganda 1949 and same today thank to Vladimir Putin, Russian president. He started his career at KGB Dresden/Saxony where USSR got its fake Uranium. I describe it at my website.

It appears that Anders has been shown the door at Gage's group.

Disclosure: I say "appears" because I have no idea where or when this happened.

However I see no reason to believe that this was initiated by Bjorkman. I suspect that Anders own nonsense at his Tripod site (i.e., all photos & videos showing planes impacting towers are fake, a-bombs don't work & shuttle flights, Mars landers & Apollo missions are all NASA hoaxes) was too much even for Gage.

Quote from: Knight-Ridder News Service

Radon blamed for thousands of German deaths
 
SCHNEEBERG, Germany -- Hans Haeussler dreamed of becoming a schoolteacher, but World War II got in the way. In 1942 he was drafted right out of high school into the Wehrmacht to fight for Nazi Germany. After the German defeat, he spent four years as a prisoner of war in the Soviet Union.

Finally, in 1950, he returned to his home in the Erzgebirge, the "ore mountains" of Saxony in Soviet-occupied East Germany, hoping to pursue his goal. Instead, Mr. Haeussler and almost every other able-bodied man in the region were forced by the Soviets to work in the mines.

The Erzgebirge had been a source of mineral wealth, particularly silver, for centuries. But the Soviets were not after silver.

They were after uranium.

In their rush to catch up with the U.S. nuclear weapons program, the Soviets mined quickly and with no regard for safety. Over the next four decades, they took about 220,000 tons of uranium from the mountains, in partial payment of Germany's war reparations.

But the Germans who lived in the Erzgebirge paid in a more personal way: Hans Haeussler, for one, died of lung cancer in August 1988, shortly before his 64th birthday.

His cancer is believed to have been caused by radon given off by uranium dust, making Mr. Haeussler one of the 5,100 people who have died in the region as a result of the Soviet Union's frantic Cold War push for uranium.

Even now, hundreds of thousands of Germans continue to be endangered. The landscape for miles around Schneeberg is marked with giant mounds of rubble from uranium mining, much of it giving off radioactive radon.

German officials estimate that 465 square miles are contaminated.

"Not even the Nazis dared to mine the uranium from these mountains because they knew that it would destroy the people and the landscape here," the minister at Mr. Haeussler's church, the Rev. Andreas Krusche, said bitterly. "The Russians did it at the expense of the local population."

The minister is a leader of an environmental group named "Pechblende" -- the German word for pitchblende or uraninite, the black, opaque ore from which "yellowcake" for bombs was processed.

"The Americans had the atomic bomb. The Russians wanted the bomb as quickly as possible," he said. "As a result, we are all victims of the Cold War."

There are more than 3,000 piles of uranium rubble scattered in a belt from the city of Gera in the state of Thuringia to Dresden in Saxony. Some are more than 300 feet high, and on one of the rare clear days in the region, they can be seen from miles away.

Tests have found radon levels ranging from 40 to 400 times above the standard of 250 becquerels per cubic meter that Germany considers safe. (A becquerel, a unit for measuring radioactive decay, is the number of atoms that disintegrate per second.)

Well, my friends at Hiroshima and Nagasaki never observed a FLASH. The towns were simply destroyed by napalm carpet bombings 1945. Just look at all photos of the towns afterwards. Typical napalm carpet bombings. Like Dresden/Saxony February 1945.
Did your friends at Hiroshima and Nagasaki say anything about the hundreds of bombers that fire bombed them?  You know, like Dresden/Saxony?
50! The towns are pretty small you know. It took less than an hour to burn them down.

There's no evidence I can find that Hiroshima and Nagasaki were fire-bombed. I would think there would be some.
Just check your sources.

I did because I was curious. I didn’t find anything. I don’t think you have anything either.
I only talked 1973/4 to some people from Hiroshima/Nagasaki that survived the bombings 1945. No FLASHES! I explain more at http://heiwaco.com/abomb1.htm .

I went through your site. There's no evidence there. Just you proclaiming that you don't like this or that. Ex., you don't seem to be happy with MacArthur's daily routine/work schedule during the occupation. Which for the life of me I can't figure out why that's even remotely relevant even to your non-argument. So yeah, you have no evidence.

I did find this fun and creepy - For your enjoyment:
