I've seen your arguments in favor of the story being true and see them as coming from tunnel-vision. You have ignored several possibilities in favor of this one, which I believe you have already tied to your ego. I believe that on a subconscious level you know you are fooling yourself, which is why I called you out for my wager.
If you truly believe in this 100%, as you have said, then is it not silly to reject a bet on the subject? Would you not take a bet on something similarly strong in your set of beliefs - say that the sky is blue? I'm prying to see if you are truly convinced by the data or if you're convinced by your emotions/hopes/ego.
If the latter, then I want you to say so. If the former, then I want your money.
I won't wager with you simply because I don't find it interesting, my interest is in discussion and research.
I will however make a charitable contribution right now.
http://www.tunapanda.org/
It's a 5013c registered charity with a bitcoin address dating back to 2014.

I'll send 0.15 BTC ($2000) from the address 1JazoGdyB4bitQx7fjnFvLcvEKXLkZvgHi
I'll do it in about 10 minutes time so you can know its legit and there is no cunning ruse cruise going on (or if you reply fast enough I'll send it to another registered charity with a BTC address of your choosing).
If you want to take it as a bet, then take it as a bet and you can owe me the 0.15 BTC back if (lol, when) I turn out provably correct.
