I didn't understand the exact purpose of that comment either.

Please continue to post articles and links here.

Usually though not always, the links one posts reveal something of the point one wants to make. Especially if one excerpts, or bolds certain sections.

this is a very interesting statement and one I have been worried about. I'd like to think that one can post pieces from all points of view for the sake of scholarly understanding and analysis. Too often though, I think that people jump to conclusions and think these articles represent the poster's views. On this forum, I'd hope that conclusion would, more often than not, be incorrect.

I do, however, believe that if a poster continues to post articles representing the same point of view over and over again the poster is, in fact, espousing a position. I'd be happy to hear from people publicly or by PM who wish to comment on my posting history.

I too appreciate your links and thoughts E. We don't always agree, but it is necessary, I believe, to learn as much as we can on all sides of an issue.
