The point isn't as much about Thor's history of tp resistance feats(something which I acknowledged in my previous post), as much as it is about Emma getting nerfed. Or do you agree that Rulk's tp resistance is on par with Thor's?

It's not based off of mere statements, but rather how JMS presented Odin Force Thor in comparison to regular Thor. The Destroyer Armor, which has actually killed Thor on panel, merely gave OF Thor burns when it used its same attack. Bor pushed OF Thor even more than that. Ergo, statement or not, it's definitely not a baseless one or one made without any sort of backing.And yet, Thor's endured greater punishment than from someone possessed by 1/5 of the PF entity. By all rights, based on feats alone instead of using things such as character comparison, writer intent, statements, and comics as a whole instead of just feats, Thor enduring a "merciless" barrage of Celestials should ensure that he should laugh at everything thrown his way under that level. But that would be stupid as shit to do.
It's speculation at best, though, which is fine to do, but really that's all it is.
So you really think that Bor can one-shot kill Thor? I find that hard to believe, seeing how you were the same guy arguing against Superman Prime being able to do the same thing to Thor in another thread.
It would mean a lot except for the fact that Ben Grimm also survived a kill-shot from Celestials quite recently. So it basically comes down what level the PF is at in comparison to Celestials? Well, since the PF easily overpowered/destroyed a being empowered by the energies of one of the strongest Celestials in canon, there's that. As I said before, 1/5th of it being able KO a Thor who's been jobbed left and right in non-Thor titles, that too after a prolonged fight isn't an outlandish idea imo.
OK. I was just trying to make it up to my buddy zop for all the times I truthfully insulted him of being a lowballing hypocrite, by arguing his debate for him. I guess I'll leave it to him to take care of himself from now on.
