Odd not only does not understand the language of physics (jargon and 
mathematics) but he also does not even understand the language we all

Who sets their clock by outliers and oddballs? Obviously you are still a 
fool. It's so funny the way you unscience libs always accuse others of 
your own actions. The "fierce bellowing" has clearly been performed by you.

Anyone who says something is "impossible" is clearly a moron.

"impossible" can be shown ONLY if one uses their "superpowers" to 
examine ALL ways that something might happen and then show none of them 
work.

That makes Casa a proven insane moron. No, Casa you do not possess 
"superpowers".

NO, because the rules of logic show it is imposible
to prove the negative. You believe in alien visitation,
so you need to supply the proof.

Faster than light travel is at best speculation.

Again you ask for prove they have not visited. That is not how
logic works.  Benj, you've been listening to john too long!

cute move! Yo go from saying you used your superpowers to prove alien 
visits and FTL travel as "impossible" to saying that I'm the moron who 
is sayings are impossible. Nobody is supposed to notice your pivot.

By the way you are still saying things are "impossible" because that's 
how dumb you are. Proving a negative is NOT impossible! You simply need 
to use your superpowers to examine all the ways something could be true 
and then note that none of them work. It's pretty clear that you do not 
believe your superpowers are "impossible".

Star Trek science is REAL. Don't take my word for it. Odd will confirm

Since you possess the superpowers, I"m asking that you use them to 
locate the proof aliens have not visited. Should be easy for you, right?

No pivot. Same point throughout: NO credible evidence.

Where did I say impossible. I am totally open to
the possible existence of Extraterrestrials. I just
haven't seen anything to show they have visited Earth.

Now look who is pivoting! You know the negative cannot be proven
(except proof by contradiction, but only in mathematics!)

And again I point out only that there is no credible evidence
that ETs have visited earth. Such speculation can be mildly
entertaining for a teenager. But hardly serious science.

I have viewed some of the evidence and it is completely
underwhelming. It is either:
 vague physical evidence that is easily explained as human
 artifacts or at best (for alien believers) is not clear at all.
or
 verbal testimony of vague descriptions, often conflicting
 with others supposedly seeing the same "beings".

And of course the grand coverup, the last refuge of
conspiracy theorist of all types (aliens, bigfoot,
JFK, ESP, auras, crystals, free energy, ......)
that for aliens has supposedly been going on for
70 years or more with no leaks.

Other life is likely out there, but visited earth?
No, I don't see any convincing evidence for aliens
visiting earth.

now evidence of how gullible humans can be is in
rampant abundance! Just consider the number of
kooks and trolls that visit here!

Testimony is how we decide court cases. It seems to work if not quite 
perfect. And in court usually there isn't a government with virtually 
unlimited money and people trying to obstruct justice (there are 
exceptions, natch)

So clearly you are defending the grand metaparadigm as ultimate truth as 
evidences by your trotting out a list of "forbidden topics" in an 
attempt to stiffle all reasonable discussion.

A crashed aerodyne is pretty hard to deny and takes a big effort to 
cover up. Ever seen a UFO. Do you say they do not exist? Proof is right 
in your pocket (cellphone)

Accusations of insanity are always the techniques of the cover-up.
I can get all the accusations of insanity I want just by saying I don't 
believe there is any credible evidence Trump colluded with Russia.
It's all the same propaganda technique.

No, just expressing my view. Why are you so defensive?

UFO's clearly exist. In the same words but clearer:
Unidentified Flying Objects clearly exist.

By Occam's razor, the explanation that humans developed
transistors and the following technology all on our own
is clearly better than some government coverup of a crashed
Extraterrestrial ship and government "leaks" of new
technology.

Did I ever once tell a kook or troll to shut up?
For some, I have tried to get them to talk through
their issues. Others I ignore.

OTOH, I will step in when I think someone is just being
a bully.

So, give me facts if you have them. But hearsay and shoddy
research are not evidence. Even in court.

You aren’t open at all. You refuse to look.

Ed it's hard to examine forensic evidence when your butt is in the air 
and your head buried in the sand with Odd's.

It is when considering worm holes. No such breach in the continuum is
possible. No concrete proposal for worm holes exists, with explanation
of mechanisms, etc.

Semantic arguments are useless.

What constitutes “concrete”?

But Odd, semantic arguments is what your "science" is all about. Right?

Explain to Casa that the only proof needed in science that wormholes 
exist is that physicists in books say that they do.
