im not trying to win a pissing contest with you. im sure you're very intelligent. And a former surgeon? Impressive and admirable. All those who were arguing with the OP about citation and scholarly articles in the other thread have years in academia and have probably been published yourselves. AmIright?Hardly seemed like a fair "fight". But then I read the op say he had a very hard time. And mentioned the problems he had. And then this thread was bumped.

I'm sorry that my pointing out the malicious nature of bringing up this old thread has made you upset. I asked why, and no one will give me an answer. So I'll be forced to draw my own conclusions, which I had.

The OP called into question the validity of the cited study, he himself doubted it. So did we, but apparently we didn't do it in a manner satisfactory to him; whence he became a bit defensive and more combatitive. Ex. I tend to be sceptical of any public health document that tries to infer behavior is a disease and is partially funded by a gov't agency (Nat Inst of Drug Abuse) which has an agenda to control public behavior

You came in with your mind already made up, posting conclusions. If you do not know what went on prior to getting here take a little time and bother to actually read. But then you wouldn't be able to post your pompous priggery with impunity.

This should help you

I posted an article about a study done on data gathered by an institution in New Zealand over the last 40 years, with each wave of data being studied by other instutitions internationally (and the data will continue to come in until the participants stop participating)--they then tried to derail my original thread by saying it was corrupted because of the funding used to provide the research. i contended their point as well as their personal implication about my appeals and they continued to argue with me.. so now i'm getting harassed cause I joked about winning the argument in "what did you accomplish today"--because all anyone did was sit around for 4 hours and bitch at each other. lmao

basically curious2garden is going around necroing old threads and trying to insult me with emotionally sensitive posts i made when I was young and going through some painful stuff because of an argument that occurred in a completely different thread :D

This reads as
"I came in with my mind made up, and you are wrong." Which makes the following uncannily prophetic.

You seem very comfortable just showing up and rendering a judgement without bothering to read any of the pesky facts. YOU ROCK!

He came here ASKING for us to gut it. We did!! Then he lost his shit because we used methodology and no story telling sheesh.

Oops we then attempted to politely explain and that's when he threw the first ad hominem after that it was a free for all.
