@r2cornell I guess we need to understand what a credential means, A credential does not mean one is better than another. It does not mean one knows more than another. Maybe reading between the lines you read your own perspective? What is wrote in a book on how things should be, does not mean that is how things should be.
Maybe an opposing view should not be hammered down but be examined closer. Maybe an open discussion where all points of view are looked to and considered equally. What is a greater tutor then experience?
While I do not have everything figured, I doubt very much you do or anyone else does either. You can cast any judgment you like on issue's you believe I may have or not have. Going from your own words " "Reading between the line" I am guessing " I do hope your support is not based purely on guessing. In support of others you do not use guesswork, judge them or condemn them, You support through other means. Maybe it is your own mind you should examine?
