The problem is not that there are two standards (or a dozen), the standards are the same for all. However, the cons and creos seem to have great difficulty in understanding what evidence is.
If only we lived in a world where circular reasoning was valid then cons and creos would have semi decent arguments. But, we live in a world where people need hard and fast facts to convince them that a particular argument has some merit. Unfortunately, neither cons or creos seem capable of constructing valid arguments. It's like the blind leading the blind and the dumb adding supportive somments to the equally dumb, I am surprised that adults cannot see ther errors.
Keep plugging away, it is great entertainment.

And since it IS bias you cannot see it.
But it is only your bias that is making you imagine that the bias is there.
You do know that you are equally entitled to ask for the same supporting evidence that others ask of you?

My (or our) bias is actually backed by the basic rules of research.
It isn't difficult.
Anyway, I'm off to bed, sleep tight and have a peaceful night.
