    This isn’t a strictly factual issue for which a citation can be provided.

    So basically “It came to me in a dream.”

    Also, it’s fairly clear that in this environment, any citation I provided would be shot down

    More likely that it’s a claim that is incredibly unlikely for you to be able to back up because it as an absurd and ridiculous thing to believe on its face, which is precisely why you are being asked to support your claim.

    and questioned

    Oh no, horror of all horrors! We wouldn’t want to risk discussion and dialog in a space explicitly intended for exactly those things!

    If you just want to say some bullshit and have it pass without comment, you can accomplish that by shouting into the void. There’s no reason to post publicly if that’s all you want to do.

        I responded to your claim pretty clearly when I said

        it’s a claim that is incredibly unlikely for you to be able to back up because it as an absurd and ridiculous thing to believe on its face, which is precisely why you are being asked to support your claim.

        Just because you don’t agree with my characterization of your claim doesn’t mean I didn’t respond to it.
