You gullible people are funny to me. You swallow, without evidence, any news story you hear.

I don't think the pirate guy is saying this kid is a phoney. What he's saying is that he and I need more evidence before we will whole-heartedly believe all the claims in the story.

The degree to which a story warms the heart has nothing to do with the degree to which it is true.

Being a skeptic doesn't mean that one discounts new claims or events, it means you don't come to conclusions based on anecdotes and news stories.



Fact, kids can hear higher pitched sounds than adults. Research it for yourself. I'm not spewing nonsense here. Nor am I saying that I took the story for face value. Yes, it is an incredible story and touching however, what the kid does is explainable and completely plausible. The skeptics you're defending have no basis for their skepticism aside from their own disbelief because they haven't seen it before. That's why I said they are funny to me.
