Tec - but Christ said that it is the Spirit who will guide and teach us (bold added by me)
Where did Christ say this?

Sab - That's a very good question and I think that answer is that if he wrote anything down it would have been destroyed or warped
Then why write anything down?

No agruments here. Just saw a fallacy being committed (not the first time - numerous posters) and drew attention to it for lurkers and those who might not be caught up just yet on logical fallacies.
Also to emphasize that while a newspaper article is of interest, I would certainly hope that no one takes it at face value until getting their hands on the actual study, data etc. Again, for the benefit of lurkers and those who might not realize just how insidious articles like these can be detrimental to the general public. Just like when an article came out stating that eating eggs was bad for your heart (Western Universtiy). Of course the media and those already predisposed to an aversion of eating eggs for whatever reasons, jumped on that to claim vindication. People were swayed to and fro until another article and commenters (scientists) emphasized that the research methodology was flawed and confused 'causation' and 'association'.
Just saw the thread....read the article....coughed a few times....and typed. Just my observations. No harm was done to any animals in constructing this and the previous comment.

Missed all of the commotion and haven't read through everything but my point was to highlight that a Texas Sharp Shooter was in the saloon.
Sharpshooter fallacy or The Texas Sharpshooter: Cherry-picking data (clusters) to suit an argument, or finding a pattern to fit a presumption or conclusion previously held.

A newspaper hardly stands for 'tangible evidence' and might I indulge you to define your version of 'theory'? Have you read the actual research paper? Do you know the study design parameters? Was this a qualitative or quantitative study?
Remember, your conclusions are not a path to the evidence you wish to support your conclusions.
Just hoping to keep the rhetoric WAY down and a more rational, critical approach in throwing out opinions on a study that surely is multi-paged compared to a few paltry words in a newspaper article.

I don't know. I'm still trying to figure out how that F#*@ing teacup managed to locate an orbit around earth.
