dhw: I am not asking you to change your belief. I am simply asking you to accept that these researchers disagree with you.-DAVID: Of course they disagree or we would not be in discussion about it. But there are others who agree with me. So? You have picked sides and found folks whose opinions you like. I come from a background of a trained viewpoint.-Again you have misunderstood. I did not find these folk. You presented us with this research yourself and made the following comments (my bold):
DAVID: Cells respond to molecular signals they are programmed to interpret:
DAVID: Note that the cells identify the type of signal and the strength of the signal. This study implies automaticity.-My posts are a response to these comments and are an attempt to show why this study does NOT imply automaticity but in fact argues the very opposite. You have now agreed. Thank you. The fact that these researchers disagree with you does not, of course, invalidate your belief in automaticity, any more than your medical background invalidates their conclusions.
