I am always amazed at members here who always insist on a poster substantiating his/her remarks with 'evidence'. Although as a reputed international scholar I understand the importance of evidence in supporting scholarly opinions/perspectives, I am equally convinced that some opinions are too obvious to demand substantiation. In fact, this is the key reason I rarely support my opinions with evidence because, in most instances, such opinions are too obvious as to necessitate the inclusion of supportive evidence. In fact, I want to declare that from today, all my truthful assertions WILL NOT be accompanied by supportive evidence. Everyone here(at least those who are objective) know that my opinions are generally truthful and based on obvious and visible evidence.
I will therefore not be substantiating my opinions unless of course I feel there is need to. Some contributors here have tried to sabotage my contributions here with their incessant insistence on me backing my claims with evidence. Of course, I am not trying to be lazy but I do possess chunks of evidence that, if presented here, would totally annihilate the essay industry but as a self respecting intellectual , I have deliberately avoided that route.
