A totally negative response to all of this is as valid a response as any, and it allows others to test the strength of their own concepts against it. But it bemuses me why anyone judging all this info to be negative, doom and gloom leading to nothing good, would hang around on it negating the other views, which by your stated philosophy, gives it more energy even than agreeing with it. If you genuinely believe giving all this 'doom' information attention is injurious, then the obvious response is to leave the site and don't come back, don't tell anyone about it.
i couldn't agree more. very well said. i've noticed there are several posters here who repeatedly respond to posts in the way you just described, and in a manner which shows their ignorance on those topics--no matter the topic. instead of leaving the post, they go onto all the threads and write a lot of pedantic, negative things w out adding value. as michael st. claire mentioned earlier, ... it just takes a few to spoil the pot.
