[quote user="Michael Woodhouse"]Arlo Guthrie - did you just delete my post in the other thread, or did I mess up?[/quote]

Was just about to PM you. Your post was tangential to stem cells, so I moved it to a new, tangent thread: http://www.vetsurgeon.org/uk/general/f/6/t/23081.aspx

Then I replied to your point.

There's nothing wrong with Michael's post. It's spot on.

[quote user="Arlo Guthrie"]Still, ridicule the concept, challenge practitioners of homeopathy, sure. But don't insult them (this is not directed at you, Michael, but at Martin's subsequent post).[/quote]So where does ridicule become insult? As said in the stem cell thread at least one person approved of my 'insult' as it got 5 stars.

It is very difficult not to ridicule or insult someone who is so determined to persevere with arguments that fly in the face of the opinion of virtually every other member of the profession.

In my own defence, I did self report my post so it came to Arlo's attention!
