Michael,Hi Jon,I agree in substance with the facts, but not the conclusion. I agree “there is no way to know for sure” but I don’t believe one should believe what one wishes, a tendency I see all too often in this environment.
As hard as it is to refrain I sincerely think that the proper response is to have no belief on things we cannot know. We have to be accustomed to saying “I don’t know” when it is appropriate, and resist the tendency to favor some outcome to satisfy our imaginations.
Yours is probably a better response.
Jon
