Can't believe you say the truth is not a component of what you believe in lol! Incredible scenes and sights here on letsrun.com. You seem one who perverts the ways of the straight paths and corrupt your coffers with ill-gotten gain? Cuz it sounds like it ya know?
Many thousands of posts AGAINST your own belief - little bit unusual, don't ya think?
You miss the point. It isn't a belief but a fact. Most at the top of the sport will be doping. Confidential championship athlete surveys have indicated that. So have the increasingly unreal performances we are seeing now on a routine basis.

Everyone gets the point. It is your point that misses the point, being neither truthful nor factual, but rather a long-held belief formed when you were young and naive, many decades ago. Here is a short list of truths and facts to the contrary:
1) Even when uncorrected and taken at face value, "confidential championship athlete surveys" do not indicate "most", let alone "most at the top will be doping". The worst, uncorrected survey estimates still indicate "most" championship atheletes are clean. When an attempt was made to correct the initial result, removing hasty unthoughtful responses -- a known defect in these surveys -- the prevalence estimate dropped dramatically, by 12-13 percentage points.
2) There were many other doubts raised by the surveyors about whether these surveys can or do reliably represent the "truth" about how many athletes are truly doping.
3) Nothing in the survey indicates performance, or that the top-performers doped more.
4) Even if it were "true" way back in 2011, a lot has happened in anti-doping in the last 12 years, e.g. the banning of the Russian federation and anti-doping agency, unarguably the worst doping nation by every measure in 2011, and increased testing in selected countries deemed to be both high performing and high risk of undetected doping.
Your baseless faith in myths for decades, coupled with a complete lack of self-awareness, has blinded you to many inconvenient "truths" and "facts".
The unreal performances you want to believe are caused by new drugs as yet undetected, can be attributed to scientifically proven advances in shoe technology increasing efficiency and lowering energy requirements.

They don't have a single source. There isn't a Britannica Encyclopaedia for doping. It's a clandestine practice. But there are plenty of informed views about it if you read widely enough.

As said: it's not a fact.
Your saying it says nothing. But you know nothing about doping in the sport.

You don't even have one single source?
Yes, I do, but real knowledge comes from many different sources - something you are unfamiliar with.

So "they don't have a single source", but you have "many different sources"? It's easy to claim, but we can't really be sure you have at least one source until you back it up.
I don't want to burden you with listing all the "many different sources". Can you list for us just the top-3 sources supporting your "fact" that "most at the top will be doping"? You said "confidential surveys", but that completely fails as in the very worst case, the 2011 World Championship survey still said "most" world championship participants are clean.
You are 0/1 for sources justifying your "belief" as a "fact".
