Since Rrrrachel didn't respond to clarify I assume this is an accurate clarification. Thanks Mamja. 

Comments like this are unnecessary for the discussion and are rather rude to make. If you don't want to read something you feel is too long, that's certainly your choice to make. But there's no need to post to tell everyone. So please avoid making such comments in a discussion.

Again, unnecessary and rude. Please turn the personal picking comments off and stick to discussion of the topic.

I had to actually type that in a word document because I was having trouble with my computer and when I pasted it, it messed it all up and I had to cobble it together the best I could.

Marnica, you should avoid responding to baiting comments. Take it to PM if you wish to respond. Personal stuff should stay out of the discussions.

Rude? Compared to what? Saying the debate is stupid? Saying if would all just educate ourselves we would surely change our minds?

Lack of paragraphs is a legitimate style issue that makes writing difficult to read. Unlike other posters in this thread, I didn't say anything derogatory about anyone or their opinions.

I guess rude is relative.

Saying that in my opinion a debate about a topic is stupid is not personal, it's not directed at you. Its a general statement. I also never said people should just educate themselves and they would change their minds. Do not put words in my mouth. I did not say anything derogatory about anyone or their opinions in my post. I said it was amazing to me that given all the information out there, that people could still think the stuff was safe and them proceeded to put forth some information and ask some questions. Anyway you are right about 1 thing.....not worth the grief. 

Cynthia - you are right. I should not take the bait. Sometimes it's hard not to. I will refrain from it in future threads.
