There is no such thing as a study. That's just a PC name for an agenda.

Similarly, there's no such thing as knowledge or reasoning; that's just a PC
name for propaganda. So we may as well just believe whatever is convenient
and leave it at that.

Skylune's way: don't settle for trenchant irony if you can issue a petulant
taunt instead.

I haven't met "trenchant" yet: made me break out the good old American
College Dictionary. Thanks.

(I think I can do the trenchant ironry and taunt. Petulant? If you are
using that to mean contemptuous, I would have to agree. I do have
contempt for Boyer and his irrational, un-American methods, and his
contempt for everyone who doesn't fly.)
