You still have to support your view with _fact_, not diatribe.

You've only exposed your resistance to new ideas through your own
vacuousness.

Reiteration doesn't make it true. It only makes it seem true.
So once again: "Clearly" _how_? Elaborate or forfeit.

There is nothing clear about the Piacenza Liver. There is not one
single sentence on it, no pictures, not even a sentence fragment.
It's only a list of god's names with enigmatic lines and bumps!

What exactly is "clear" on that object if everything on it can only
be interpreted correctly by having insider knowledge of Etruscan
culture, language and religion? The Piacenza Liver is very much
opaque by its design.
