No retard..noone can deauthenticate something that has been proven authentic. You cannot disprove something that has been proven. You cannot falsify what has been verified. And so on and so on. It's simple logic really.

""Definition of Deauthenticate
verb
To reject as authentic; to falsify or disprove (transitive)"

Thank you. I got you to prove that you were, indeed, pulling the burden of proof fallacy by demanding someone "prove you wrong."
You just tried to obscure it in this "deauthenticate" language.

I used my own hypothetical moron:

"No..but a photo of Hiroshima labeled Hiroshima is certainly proof of Hiroshima."

And since that's the last hypothetical to be discussed, it's the one I continue to refer to.

You're mental abilities are really declining now. Sundown syndrome?

You're the one making up nonsense because you couldn't keep up.

Asexual whose never been in love?

"This is a photograph that was taken by a friends son. Adam was working for a roofing outfit from Tremont, Illinois Koch Construction. He snapped this photograph with his camera phone. The story he told me was that they were hired to roof the house by the new owners. According to him, the lady who lived there had passed away nearly three months before. They had been working on the house for two days and had seen no one there."

I often post for more than the person I'm addressing. Much like any debate or politics, you're speaking to the audience more than the opposing side. If nothing else, I like to give random readers the impression that this forum doesn't just accept all this crackpot woo. And while Ostro can't understand the simplest argument and C2 is usually lost in his own trolling buffoonery, as illiterate as MR is, he can often at least track with simple arguments.
I've also been running a psychological experiment on him for years.

Hate to see crackpots hijack a forum. Wonder how many people come here, recognize the username and from experience never wade in? He's on my ignore list which actually consists of just him, so not really a list. He's probably been gassed or suspended a few times at other forums other than SciForums. Got better things to do than to read and respond to his posts. Hate to leave you on your own but sure you can handle him.

No worries, Zin.

LOL @ poor old Zin having a hell of a time "ingnoring" me.

"This picture was taken at the Devil's Den in Gettysburg... On 4-3-05. There were not any reenactors there at that time. I made for certain that during my trip, I did not take any pictures of anyone dressed in Civil War era clothing because I was there on a ghost hunting trip. The first photo is the full size picture, the second is a close-up of the soldier."

So which is it? There were none there or you had to make sure you didn't photograph any?
If you can't even keep such a short story straight....

"A recent sighting at the Cleveland Museum of Art has people wondering if the museum is haunted by the ghost of Claude Monet.

“We thought it was such a coincidence that on the final day of installing Painting the Modern Garden: Monet to Matisse, this man resembling Claude Monet was seen peering down into the lower lobby outside the special exhibition hall,” Kelley Notaro, communications associate with the museum, told TODAY.com. “This snapshot taken by a staff member is not retouched or Photoshopped. And we have heard from others that they’ve seen the man, but there hasn’t been a confirmation in his identification!”

The photo in question shows a man with a long, white beard, sporting a hat like the one Monet was fond of wearing, and looking distinctly like the artist who was fond of painting his gardens at Giverny. After the image was posted to Facebook, several superstitious art lovers posited that perhaps—especially given the proximity to Halloween—the figure might just be the ghost of the famous French Impressionist painter."

"Perched on a hill in Louisville, KY, the Waverly Hills Sanatorium is known for its history of illness, death, and of course, ghosts. The photo above, taken in 2006, reportedly shows the wandering spirit of Mary Lee, a former nurse at the facility."

"This photo was taken at my wedding. This is my husband and his family. We had a very small ceremony at my grandmother's apartment. Only immediate family members were there. We chose to be married there because it is a beautiful place. My grandma helped raise me. And, when my husband found out where she lived he was shocked... His Grandmother (who had passed away) had lived in the same apartments when he was a child. He had very fond memories of the building. He told me stories about how his grandma had seen a ghost a couple of times... a man. We had absolutely NO strangers at the wedding. We never noticed this man in the photo. My Mother in law passed away a few years ago, and I started looking at photos of her... And to my surprise, there is a ghost in this photo. My husband is convinced his mom brought it to my attention... Because almost 20 years had passed, and no one had ever noticed.

Where he is squatted down, a chair is sitting in the corner. His body would be in the chair. (if he was there.) You can see through his head. It also looks like he is wearing a garter on his arm, and enjoying the wedding. I have had everyone on both sides of the family look at the picture, and no one knows who he is...or remembers him being there. The whole roll of film was used at the wedding, so it was not a double exposure from another picture on the roll. Plus, we don't know him... So we wouldn't have a picture of this guy anyway.

We were married in the Enos apartments, built in 1857. The owner was an abolitionist, and the underground railroad is in the basement of the building to this day. In 1911 it was converted to a sanitarium and tuberculosis hospital. It is a building known for being haunted, and on the local haunted tour."
