Revoked? Whatever for?

Why would anyone revoke your posting privileges? Misquoting a study?  We all make mistakes - I know I surely do.  Maybe carrying on a debate in the news forum?  Many of these threads that become overly long should probably be moved to a debate forum and a note left explaining that it was moved.

Personally I can see no reason for revoking your posting privileges and would never do so if it were up to me.  I may disagree with you, but as far as I can see you are always civil and mostly respectful in your posts.  I kind of have fun debating you actually - and probably should have taken less license with poking fun at you than I have. But I certainly do not dislike you, even when some of what you post irks me a bit!

In my opinion, educating and not medicating implies learning how to avoid medicating to the greatest and safest extent possible, and that includes flu shots if there are better alternatives - which I believe that there are. 

I am a great lover of science and always have been.  I just hate to see science misused for profit instead of being allowed to make truly objective studies and a system designed to prevent objective studies into natural alternatives and anything else that represents a threat to the trillion dollar industry that is big pharm and mainstream medicine.

In an ideal world, science and medicine would work hand in hand with nature for the benefit of all mankind, but it is not an ideal world.  And nature is not the one to blame.

I hope that whoever told you that your privileges were being revoked re-considers (unless there is some infraction I am unaware of).

Peace,
