Once they're legitimately discovered.

EDIT - Mal beat me to it.

QuoteScience doesn't explain everything.  God created everything...even some stuff that science can't explain.

Can't explain yet.  And may not explain for some time.

If it doesn't pass, it's swept aside until compelling evidence comes along.

That's what I mean about "shouldn't be disregarded." I should have said, "not completely disregarded."


Also, no one try and start an argument about God with EarthHive, I think we've had enough of those, and we all have seen what happens to those threads.

No, it doesn't. But it doesn't just fill holes just for the sake of filling holes.

So you're basing your argument on something else that hasn't been proven. Smooth move.

Again: Cryptozoology just spins its wheels; that is why it must be disregarded.

I don't think it should' If science can't find any evidence, and it moves on until hard proof is found, then I think that cryptozoology should be kept around. For the people that want to go and find these creatures, despite no physical evidence; cryptozoologists should just keep doing what they're doing in the chance that something hard proof and undeniable is found, even if it means that they will find nothing.

I always wondered why whenever a picture of a cryptid is taken, the photo is always blurry. To me, that suggests these things aren't real because it's as if the photographer is deliberately doing it.

I don't care what anyone says, I saw that bigfoot footage on In Search Of... when I was a kid it freaked me out and consequently I still find it it oddly compelling.

It doesn't matter what you think. It is what it is. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean that empirical evidence should go out the window. There are reasons as to why the Scientific Method was established and why it works.

Why are you not getting this? Cryptozoology's methods are flawed. Read the definition of it that I had supplied. The only purposes it has is to line the pockets of some and to give others something to fantasize about. In other words, you're in favor of a swindle.

It's to string along people like ShadowPred.

I don't mean to sound harsh, but it is what it is. You admit to liking to be strung along just for fun. The cryptozoologists are either nonscientists or are scientists who are using nonscientific methods. People believe in their methods and they pay money for blurred pics and other manufactured "evidence" instead of exploring the true wonders of the Earth. If they want to fantasize, do it right: read a book on mythology.

Maybe because no one is able to get close enough to see it.

They're close enough to get the pic in the first place. They can at least hold a camera steady. Or else, don't bother.

We're able to photograph and even capture any animal, no matter how dangerous or elusive it may seem.

It's easier for cryptozoologists and their victims believers to make excuses instead of using critical thinking.
