Have most people given up on finding Madeleine alive?

There doesn't seem to be anything to prove it was a burglary gone wrong either.

I feel if SY had found absolutely nothing they would not be talking so positively about the investigation continuing...we just do not know

I think that is probably just as it should be until things are decided one way or t'other.

Who does it really matter to?  Madeleine and her immediate family are the important ones here ... not a nondescript bunch of people chattering on the internet.

When the Secrecy is lifted, we will hopefully know what has been unearthed if anything, until then, it is all just a guessing game.

Nobody can say Madeleine is definitely dead, or definitely alive.  In the absence of absolute proof there remains a possibility, however slim.  You may not like it but that is a fact. 

To be honest Stephen, you are showing a rather creepy determination to convince everyone that Madeleine is dead.  You have become the forum equivalent of the drunk pub bore, droning on and on about their pet obsession.

It would be funny, if the subject were not so tragic.

Pub bore ?

Subjective opinion.

What I find distasteful is the repeated 'abduction' scenario, for which there exists no proof whatsoever, and is churned out day by day, as if it the only 'reason' for Madeleine's disappearance, when it is certainly not the case.

As to wanting Madeleine dead, that is nasty, as I have said no such thing.

I just believe there is no chance that will happen.


Unlike you and your fellow supporters, I don't believe in fantasies, just reality.

One day you might understand that point, but I somehow doubt that will occur, as mccann supporters have to perpetuate the idea of abduction, and that she will miraculously return.

does that translate into "disparate and largely dysfunctional internet punters" ? 
I have posted to that effect several times

Do you know what happened to Madeleine? 

Of course not.  the perpetrator of the crime will know, and maybe accomplices, but until the riddle is solved we cannot and should not rule anything out, including the possibility that she is alive.

It is possible she was abducted for some reason.

It is possible that she wandered

It is possible her parents were involved.

It is possible that there is something that nobody has yet thought of.

That is my opinion.  However, it seems, from reading endless posts by you, that you cannot accept that others have a perfectly valid and rational stance that Madeleine may, possibly, be still alive.

And you, I do think your obsession that Madeleine is dead, and your constant drone about it, is just plain nasty.

I said earlier on that we will have to agree to differ - sadly you seem to be unable to accept that without the usual insults.

I take it you are referring to amaral and his drink driving...cite...his wife

Same old rubbish.

i.e. You feel free to try and insult me of course.

However, that is no surprise.

Simply don't bother replying to my posts.

Pray tell, give me one rational and logical premise, which  after 8 years of absolutely nothing, would suggest that Madeleine is still alive.

I'm all ears.

Given your insistence that Madeleine is definitely dead, you are a sensitive little flower Stephen.

One rational and logical premise that Madeleine may still be alive? A body has not been found.  And in the absence of a body there is a possibility (however remote) that she is still alive.

Flower no, stroppy yes.

She may also be on Mars.

As much evidence for that as for her being still alive.

[Mr Gray]

you are becoming a serious bore

Why stroppy?  Have you been drinking, Stephen?

You surely don't think your opinion somehow counts for anything in this matter, do you?  The same applies to all posters here.

And juvenile comments about Mars aside - that is the point- there is no evidence of anything.  And therefore there remains a possibility that Madeleine is alive.  A very slim chance but still a chance.

I really cannot understand why the possibility that Madeleine may just possibly be still alive upsets you so much.  You seem to be taking this very personally. 

[stephen25000]

you are becoming a serious bore

Tough.

 

[Mr Gray]

Tough.

 

it doesn't bother me.....it's quite satisfying that as a sceptic you have no serious arguments
