The only 'claim' on the table was that there is 'no evidence'.
I have shown that there is high quality evidence, relating to evolutionary biology, dna sequencing, etc.
You can argue about the merits of the evidence all long, but it still exists, whether you or anyone agrees with it or not. It's not a difficult concept.
I am not even convinced by it myself, I simply recognise that it is on the table
The people who claim there is no evidence are simply wrong. End of. They could have conceded the point and admitted they were wrong, but they threw the toy out the pram instead.
And being peer reviewed does equate to scientific credibility, its the benchmark of credibility.
As many have said this chat is on the Palace section, so its not the place for detailed scientific debate.
What is relevant is whether our players/managers have reasoned, valid and rational. beliefs
OR are ignorant, lazy and irrational.
I prefer the former view, some of you prefer the latter.
