IT is no wonder why Mr. de Freitas continues his joint-effort with Mr. Gossai to raise questions about my credentials. It is simply a smokescreen to divert attention from the embarrassment and predicament he found himself in when he so confidently and publicly endorsed “Ida”, but only to be discredited and to have his credibility brought into question. The same holds true when I raised the question about ant-matter and did it all go.

If I were speaking by my own authority, it would certainly be reasonable for me to present my credentials. However, the arguments I presented were not my own. They were from renowned scientists and in some cases, atheistic scientists. It brought balance and a broader scope to what was once a one-sided and narrow-minded view presented by some. I have even listed the credentials and source of some of my findings.

An example would be an argument that Mr. de Freitas presented about “evolution is what happens after life is formed”. But on further scrutiny of such a statement, one would have to ask, “So where did life come from?” We could see that Mr. de Freitas’s statement is really a hypothesis. But when such questions are raised, then one’s credentials are brought into question. This is called reversed psychology which does not work with a sixth-grader (fourth standard). Reasons for my non-existence have been exaggerated, and for good reason!
