Black Hound Posted December 26, 2009 #106 Share Posted December 26, 2009 (edited) which is incorrect. Ok, Fox I'll bite. What is corect? and why is it incorrect.? Please don't be critical of something without making it clear why something is incorrect without citing what about it is incorrect. Being critical with no responsibility to back up your statement is in poor taste. Edited December 26, 2009 by Graveyard Hound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being critical with no responsibility to back up your statement is in poor taste. its almost poor taste stating something as empty as "all legend may have a grain of truth". thats all. im just stating how its a poor way of thinking.

Drago Posted December 26, 2009 #113 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Ok, Fox I'll bite. What is corect? and why is it incorrect.? Please don't be critical of something without making it clear why something is incorrect without citing what about it is incorrect. Being critical with no responsibility to back up your statement is in poor taste. I didn't think I'd actually get into this, but. Stating that every single legend and myth has a grain of truth is misleading. The grain of truth does not necessarily have to be behind the part of the legend you're assuming it is, nor does it necessarily have to be literal truth, and indeed, it's totally impossible for you to verify that all legend and myth contain some truth. This is an 'uncounterable' statement that the skeptics of this board are constantly bombarded with, and we get tired of people suddenly trying to turtle behind the statement. So we simply don't put up with it anymore, and point out it's a fallacious and misleading statement - or in Mulder's case, that it ain't true. There can be a bit of a backlash when it's used that a lot of newer people dropping it around here don't expect. And also, it's bad form to ask Mulder for something that you yourself are unable to reply with in kind. Unless you can verify your statement (That all myths and legends contain some measure of truth,) it's not very sporting to tell someone that they have to verify their counter-statement (That it isn't true.)

Black Hound Posted December 30, 2009 #119 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I think theey add someething to Gothic styled churches of the Middle Ages.

Ruffjeff Posted December 30, 2009 #120 Share Posted December 30, 2009 There was a Gargoyles cartoon and a Movie. Possibly gargoyles as misshapen humanoids with wings is linked back to medieval ideas of Demons. <img src="http://www.retrotrader.com/catalog/images/new025%20087.jpg" border='0' alt='linked-image'> hahahah!...i remember watching that show when i was a kid...
