I never suggested he did, I suggested you did. Using the report and the statistics in order to further your agenda.
Which gives you a perfect excuse to disregard the findings of one of the most renowned medical universities on the planet.
If using statistics suggests an agenda to you, I'll tell you that using excuses verifies one to me.
I am not sure if you have Tachographs in the US but I had to deal with thousand of mistakes on tacho's by my drivers and none resulted in deaths.
Last year there was something like half a million accidents involving trucks, resulting in about 5,000 deaths.
I can go get the link for you if you like, but I have to warn you, it contains statistics.
No because you still did not get the nuance, I think were done here.
I get the nuance. You're not saying that religion is dangerous you're saying it
can be dangerous.
No argument there. Planes flying into buildings and whatnot.
My point is, compared to a lot of other things--- mainstream medicine being one of them --- in the big picture it isn't inherently all that dangerous.
Especially when it comes to the kind of danger you were pointing out: people suggesting prayer instead of getting medical attention.
Thats a rarity here, in spite of the fact that we have quite a few Jehovah's witnesses here.
Should also consider that the fact that the person we're talking about came into a place called Religious forums with her problem, kind of suggest those are the kinds of answers she was looking for, spiritual ones.
The fact that she got mostly medical advice anyway suggests to me that the potential for the kind of danger that you were talking about in your OP is pretty minimal.
I also get why you don't want to answer my question.
You don't really want to have a discussion about any of this, mostly you just want to vent.
The reaction you had to what you saw here last night was an emotional one, and you made a thread about it before you had time to think things through reasonably.
No worries, I just answered the question for you.
