When refuted by medical studies... you ignore.

You're not posting fact, you're posting opinion. Unless you deem yourself more knowledgeable on the matter than the American Psychological Association, or the American Academy of Pediatrics.

As others have pointed out, you post beliefs and opinions. Which, under scrutiny, have often turned out to be unfounded in any way. The simple denial of mounds of contradictory evidence does not contribute in any way to an opinion's being well-founded. Quite the contrary, in fact...

He has the right to hold and state his opinion. That are the only one he has exercised.

You have the right to disagree with and mock him. Hurray for you.

Beyond that, nothing has been established in this area that is not subject to debate and judicial review.

Maybe this is proof it's not just a one night stand or merely habit? Bless these gals for hanging in there.

No, I don't care what you believe.
Just keep it away from me.
I don't believe what you do, I don't believe in any god thing.
I challenge you to show me any one of my posts where I imply that you shouldn't believe what you believe personally?
I will ask, nay, demand, that you keep your religious beliefs out of my life; just as you don't want my beliefs becoming law over yours.
Unless you do want my beliefs to be forced upon you.
