Gives some good expert reviews of the study.
She’s obviously not an idiot but definitely had an agenda.

“This meta review covers much of the work done over the past 50 years to explore the relationship of the serotonin system to depression. Unfortunately, all of these variables are indirect measures of serotonin function or even worse (as in the case if the gene-linkage studies) merely proxies for serotonin activity. It is only recently that we have developed the technology to measure serotonin release in the living human brain and in the first study of this type (currently under review) we did find decreased serotonin release capacity in people with depression. So, to dismiss the serotonin hypothesis of depression at this point is premature.”

Yet another case of scientific zeitgeist :

For me the terrible part is there were scientists trying to get this message across to the mainstream media and leading scientific bodies, but they were dismissed. The point I'm making is exactly the same as throughout the thread - be skeptical, question everything, even when the 'experts' are in the majority..

Re: England’s first ever red warning for extreme heat on Monday and Tuesday.
There’s a big difference between being sceptical and saying the ozone hole was never an issue and CFCs had nothing to do with it.
Do you have the whole article all I can see is the headline saying “May have misled” so can’t read any of the article let alone the associated studies.

Yes science should always be questioned, that's kind of the point.
However not one of the people who are expressing doubt in man made climate change in this thread has been able to describe to me what the case for climate change being man made actually is, despite me asking several times.
I strongly suspect that is because you don't know what it is.
Questioning things because the evidence is weak, or there is good evidence that contradicts it is a good thing to do. Being sceptical about something because you haven't taken the time to understand it is just ignorance, and assuming that you know more than any credible scientists working in the field, from reading some right wing twat's opinion piece is just pure arrogance.

It's in the Times also, but you have to subscribe. Just read it in the Cafe.

Spot on. Michael Gove and his ilk really did a good job at whipping up their base to be “skeptical” against experts so it lets them get away with what they want.

That state of that document too :hehe: the reference links either don’t work, are to something else or are misaligned.
I’d be embarrassed to submit that for GCSE coursework and that’s ignoring the poor content .

You can't help getting personal and abusive can you. People who are more aggressive on media tend to do so to over compensate for real life inadequacies. You get angry and unpleasant pretty much every time you try to make a point.

Why do you think I'm angry?
If you're that offended by the rude word I used then feel free to omit it and re-read the post.
Didn't realise there were so many delicate people on here.

It's so arrogant. We are right, you are wrong. Any deviation from our opinion means you want to start a culture war. Drives me round the bend :hehe:

Out of interest, which daily newspaper (with the possible exception of the I) offers the sort of nuance that you crave?

Listen to yourself - you agree with the Guardian and then criticise them for behaving in exactly the same manner as you do.

A newspaper is only allowed an opinion if it concurs with JW's views.
Unless it's the Guardian, which must be criticised regardless of it's take on any given topic.
Them's the rules.

Where did I say it wasn't allowed an opinion? I just criticised the style of it.
I'm allowed to criticise it aren't I?

On the few occasions I've read the Guardian [after yet another link on here], I've never understood any of their articles - they seem to start of with a dramatic headline and then ramble on without making any sense. It's a bit like those football cartoons from the paper - never have a clue what point the bloke is trying to make - tried reading left to right, up and across, they're a mystery..

I provide reading and comprehension lessons at very reasonable rates if that helps. I usually start with learning to fully understand the Daily Star before moving on to the broadsheets.
