Haha, damn time zones. I was sleeping. Something tells me, she'll read the thread again.Wish you would've said this sooner. I actually made an effort to reach out. Which is pointless now she'll not be reading it.
Just so everyone knows, and @Andrea82, your effort was not wasted. OP is still reading this thread because she PM'd me to insult me in the comfort of my own inbox.
But it doesn't work and you know it. If a person has closed oneself off to science I've yet to figure out how to open that door again. Science is about logic and evidence - the evidence that can be tested and proved/disproved - and the moment you deny logic and just go by what you feel science has lost. There's absolutely no way to make people who live by 'I feel it's right, therefore it is right' even consider scientific evidence. Ironically, their mind is closed to actual evidence. It's actually the scientists, the ones who get yelled at for being 'closed minded', that are the open minded ones (mostly, at least), because they will demand data from different sources, compare data, and only will draw conclusions when convinced that the data stand up to scrutiny. Enlightened people usually don't even have data, just feelings, and you can't debate feelings.Hmm. I could have loaded her with a lot of useful links. None related to her spider, but ones that teach a person what "critical thinking" is. Like the Skeptic's dictionary.
Exactly.Why sad, boina? I think the quote fits this thread pretty well. Now THAT'S sad.
But shes not leaving it alone?!?!Never even occurred to me to look it up, but it seems you're right!

I have to give it to OP, that is a neat name!
Agreed.. doesn't seem to be on much these days..
I can't believe I am gonna say this, but I wish Poec54 were here to have seen the start of this. Trust me, he has probably owned more Pokies than you will see in a lifetime. If his ever exhibited the type of behaviour you claim yours does, I'd like to hear about it. And this may not be what you want to hear, but there is nothing SPECIAL about your particular Pokie. it is just like the rest of them out there, both in the wild and in captivity. So if a propensity to interact with humans as you describe WAS a thing, I'm pretty sure we'd have heard about it before you happened along.
This is me trying to be reasonable. I still haven't completely ruled out trolling, but I don't hate it as much as a lot of people do (depending on the nature of it) so can be a little more patient. Of course, that patience only goes so far before I get ornery, something I can be kind of good at... Ask anybody.
