Nope, that's NOT what I said -- and anyone who says otherwise is generalizing
that since I didn't agree with them, I must be agreeing with the other side ;)

I've responded more in depth in a previous post, but no, that's not what I
said. What *I* said was "EVERYthing's relative, because every body is
different, and anyone who tries to say otherwise automatically makes their own
arguments less worthy to be listened to."

It WOULD be nice, however, to see scientists and doctors actually practicing
what they preach. The reason they are less and less discounted in more and
more people's minds is BECAUSE they are not admitting to our accounting for
their own biases. As a great and wise person once said whose name I can't
remember: "Just because you can argue better, does NOT mean you're right".
