Bible Note: Hi Humbled., No, I didn't get that you were endorsing anything, I actually meant for my post to be helpful to you. I apologize if I came across as calling your position on this into question. As far as my opinion regarding the writer's objectivity; he wrote presenting a lot of assumption and personal belief as fact regarding a discipline and practice that he obviously knows very little about and was in fact not factual. Regarding the "mean spiritedness" comment, I'll just have to credit that to my personal opinion and my bias as a professional in the field receiving criticism. Thanks, Jeff |
