It would have to be sound AND quantifiable.
Which would require us meeting in person with 2 unbiased 3rd parties and a standard telepathy debunking experiment. You would have to prove your ability to read my mind within the parameters of said experiment.
Who's paying for my passport and bus ticket to Ohio to set up the experiment? ;)
"I consider others' opinions all the time. When actual quantifiable proof exists for their arguments."
It sounds closer to you being the sort to take others opinions into regard when they match how you already think. If it doesn't, it's likely not "proof" to you, or at least not quantifiable, not good enough. From the looks of things, if it can't convince you it must not be true?
Also, this "The internet can't know me" thing comes up a lot. What's up with that?
"lol. Still claiming you're telepathic?"
The ability to read doesn't strike me as telepathy~
"That negates everything you claim to 'know' about me. You've never met me. You're not inside my head. You can't possibly know what I do and for whom I do it. All you see are some very limited exchanges during the brief time (as a percentage of the whole of my existence) I've spent on this forum."
You realize that if we knew everything about you, there would be no need for this thread? Or any of the numerous threads discussing the character traits of the members of this forum.
"Um... I'm pretty sure you're referring again to the time I've spent in discussion here, with you and others."
What else would he be referring to?
"None of my RL friends have ever referred to me as evil"
LOL
"Whatever the case may be, I am not evil."
I think this basically sums it up. 'No matter what reality is, I have decided what reality is.'

Just cross the border like the economic migrants do. You'll get free health care and food stamps, it makes more sense to enter the country illegally.
Do you mean to say that you cannot understand anything about a person by what they write?
I already have free healthcare and A JOB for the 8000th time.
Our charity food programs are better than the Murricans, too.
"Do you mean to say..."
Usually when a person writes their own self assessment 5 and 10 times, I don't believe the exact opposite of what they've written. Not unless I see compelling proof to the contrary accompanied by photographs and some sort of legal history.
eg: President O is an American. Despite ridiculous efforts by Trump and the Faux News team, I still believe that the documents produced and his position demonstrate the facts of his citizenship.
I can question another person's motives, but I can't claim to know their motivations just by reading the things they write.. I always preface my assessments of teh interwebz peoples with smthg like "my guess would be..." Even if I doubt their claims after I ask them directly, it's not worth it to press the issue toward any type of quasi-certainty.
Not sure why you folks care so much, either.
