Ah, thanks
for the correction. I thought that phrase seemed familiar, but couldn't think of why. I had forgotten about the other Langue d'Oil dialects. I blame France and its disdain for the existence of dialects other than Parisian. Thanks again, and sorry about the miscommunication. :)
Ezekiel's wheel
Dear David -
I have tried a couple of times now to amend the Ezekiel's wheel page because it is currently illogical, makes unsubstantiated claims of irrefutable proof and the style of the writing is far too colloquial.
So far you have deleted or moves all of my attempts to update the page.
Your opening sentence in "angels versus ufos" reads as follows:
"The entire Book of Ezekiel is, of course, incontrovertible proof of alien visitation, and not the result of gibbering schizophrenia or more drugs[2] than were used to write the Book of Revelation and The Beatles back catalogue combined."
Moving forward, since we know of scholars and amateurs who have disputed that the book of Ezekiel is "proof" of alien contact this should mean that you can no longer claim this - opinion is clearly divided. Irrefutable proof is a scientific term that relies on evidence. A book that claims something is not in itself irrefutable proof, for example the tales of Odin and Zeus and so on were written down - this in itself is not proof that these gods exist.
You cite "gibbering schizophrenia" - where is your proof that mental illness was not a contributing factor? No-one has any medical records of Ezekiel. We don't even know for sure that he exists. You then cite drugs and the Beatles - stylistically this is a humorous sentence but the tone is well out of place if we are attempting to give the page an academic tone.
If we can tone down the unfounded opinions and stick to the known facts on this one I think the page would be much improved.
Best regards,
Paul.
