Magda,
This is YOUR forum, not mine. You are free to post whatever you desire. In the spirit of free speech I would imagine that I am free to comment as I see fit so long as I don't break forum rules. However, I perhaps wrongly assumed that you were responsible for adding emphasis to the article even though you didn't indicate you did so. In which case I again wrongly assumed that that was a statement of endorsement of those portions. The article itself is rife with ad hominem in the form of labeling dissenters as "Climate Science Denialists" and the like. Your having posted that article sure "felt" like you agreed with it since you didn't state otherwise. I take exception to that because the article is actually an attack on those, like me, who question and challenge the party line.
Just to be clear, what constitutes "topics members are allowed to post to" these days? Am I on moderation? Is Lauren allowed to post about Global Warming, a subject in which he has demonstrated interest, but without any particular expertise, but I am not? I know his opinions are perhaps more in line with those who believe in man-made Global Warming than are mine, but where do you draw the line? I'm just wanting to be clear on the rules of engagement.
Thanks--

Magda Hassan Wrote:I posted one article without comment. This in a thread where others including yourself have commented. You are the one who likes to to pop up and make comments about climate change and what bs it is. Something you admit you are unqualified for. But it doesn't stop you from shooting your mouth off does it? Deal with the article and its content and not me please. Leave the ad homs out. You comprehension skills seem to also be lacking if you think I am the one to reply to and not the article. Which then creates doubt about the validity of any thing you might have to say on this subject able to be taken seriously. As I said best stick to what you are better at. This is not your area of expertise.

Magda,
This subject is not YOUR strong point--by your own admission! I have never made such an admission as to do so would be untrue.
