Anyone can do that........and as it is said, "anyone can have their own opinion", but you're not entitled to your own facts. If you have facts, you got them somewhere and should be able to point to them.
You still don't get it.
There specific facts can be 100% correct, but if they are they still don't add up to their conclusion.
If you showed me a black dog.
And then showed me another black dog.
And then said "see all dogs are black"
I don't have to present my own data (a white dog, a brown one, whatever) to say that your argument is faulty.
The data only speaks for itself in a very direct and limited sense. It only tells me that those two dogs are black. You can say "I'll get more data", and line up 10,000 black dogs and march them past me, and then show me a power point presentation on how dogs are black, but it still doesn't mean you have demonstrated that all dogs are black.
The data in that paper may be accurate, just as the two dogs might be black, but irrelevant data is meaningless. Just because the data isn't disputed by other data doesn't mean the argument is correct. It has to be relevant.
If you only need data and not proper logic, then you owe me a million dollars. I can prove it.
1: 1+1=2
2: My car is silver
3: Mars is larger than Pluto
Conclusion: Therefore you owe me a million dollars.
How can you dispute it? All the data is correct. Go ahead, try to show me that its wrong.
