Apparently not....it doesn't have to be a court of law for me to require some sources before I trust or believe anything. Haha. I'm asking you for your sources and you say common sense.... sorry that doesn't fly with me. Thats basically speculation. We were discussing earlier the propensity for changing peoples minds. Are you interested in that? Do you want to move the discussion forward.... provide me evidence for your claims. I'm taking a complete non-controversial position in the " I dont know" category and I'm completely open to taking in new evidence.
Common sense will tell you if you jump off a roof you are going to fall. If the fall is too high will be injured. If its high enough you might die. None of this provides any information about WHY or HOW the fall will do this. For that you need evidence, data, and inquiry to generate a theory in light of not having ALL the evidence need to make 100% truthful statement. No court of law. Its called logic and reasoning and I'm perfectly allowed to require such things to make an informed opinion and without those "I dont" know" is the only other reasonable position to hold.
According to the DNI (a source I provided above) their theory is that the preponderance of evidence indicates a natural origin with the caveat that more evidence would be needed to be provided from China and that they are unresponsive or unwilling to help the international community but also they have strong evidence the Chinese government had no knowledge of a weaponization program or that it was release from a lab intentionally. I accept that and hold that I'd agree that is a fair assessment, with my own caveat that if I was presented with further evidence to incorporate into their analysis, I'd be willing to change my mind. So... I ask again, outside of common sense what is your evidence that it originated from a lab in Wuhan China that somehow the US Government has missed or should take credibly and they arent? I'm asking what conviced you.
The Fauci emails suggest other scientists believed the makeup the virus looked engineered. I don’t have links because I’m driving.
The countless number of times Mr. Fauci lied about what they were doing at the Wuhan lab and who was funding it. Mr. Fauci was basically just arguing semantics and definitions, and was completely getting away with it but they were obviously developing this virus at that lab. I don’t even think that is even disputed. Again, I’m not going to stop my travels to provide links.
The improbability and the convenient fact that the virus was started in the same place the Wuhan lab was developing these viruses. The odds of this virus just naturally occurring in that same city is relatively small and almost impossible.
I’m not even suggesting China was weaponization the virus, or that it was leaked intentionally. I think it’s safe to assume that it could have happened on accident, but from the lab. I think there is enough logic and reasoning there. Until they can find the animal that started all this at some random wet market in Wuhan China just down the road from the Wuhan lab then I will change my assessment and view on this topic.
Everyone knows the virus came from China. Even China knows the virus came from China. It would be very easy and in China’s favor to cooperate if the end result was that it started in a market and not a lab. There are reasons people lie, there are reasons why people do not cooperate. Those reasons are typically guilt.
