When I hear this word, a light goes off. That light says 'you cannot defend a theory by calling it perspective or opinion'Originally Posted by Pharoh Amon Khan III
JME is known to exist. Odine states that it is a toy, but it exists. As a machine capable of artificially junctioning the powers of a person to another, it must be an incredibly complex machine. Such machines, logically, have antecedents. GF emulation junction machines, of limited power but easy mass production, are a common sense antecedent for this machine.And to do that, we're going to have think outside the box. The JME theory has no more 'evidence' in the game as my 'Cast' theory.
Meanwhile, your 'cast' theory has issue because those few people we do know the specific junction status of- namely, the party itself- cannot actually draw and then cast without the aid of GFs.
The 'junction machine' theory, is a more parsimonious theory, since it involves a much simpler form of a technology known to exist, instead of invoking a heretofore unseen, unexplained methodology that has somehow escaped the knowledge of an organization specifically designed to combat natural magic users.
An appeal to a limited popularity. Of course, I'm curious how clash of the gardens actually shows what you claim it to, since no one is seen drawing, and GFs do not appear when magic is cast anyways.I based my ideas on my interpetation of Odine's Notes and what was happening during battles; even during the "Clash of The Gardens" what I interpeted was shown, and my friends and I are like WOW.
Again, appeal to popularity. Now, as I've said before many times elsewhere, if you find a flaw in the Junction Machine theory, please, if you would, explain what that flaw is, and show specific examples against it.For me and a lot of other people that works. For other the JME theory. I don't care. Go with what you want. I could crack your theory just as much as you would mine. But their's no definitive description of the technique of Para-Magic.
Red Herring, appeal to popularity, appeal to motives, etc. The reason you are getting grief is not because you've 'taken us outside our box', it's because you're trying to pretend your non-parsimonious postulate has as much validity as a postulate based on existing technology.Some friends of mine I told this 'theory' to years ago when FFVIII first came out like it and it made the more 'connected'. They've read the reactions to my posts and they all feel that the reason I'm getting grief is because I've taken you outside your box. Suddenly Jesus isn't the savior you thought he was.
All gods suffer the burden of proof. None of them fill it.Hey, there is a God, I just don't believe the same way everyone else does and that pisses them off... A LOT!
"Yeah, I could totally hack your computer, but I'm NOT!"You believe in the JME all you want and I'm not gonna refute it. I CHOOSE not to. You don't. I CAN, but I WON'T. It's POINTLESS.
If I had a dollar for every time someone said they could totally destroy my theory, but wasn't going to, or otherwise tried to dismiss my theory without addressing it, I would be a very very rich man.
