> I would say that any research suggesting that MDMA is "safe" would be extremely controversial. There are literally hundreds of studies that one would have to refute, not just a single study.
You're right, linkadge; I didn't mean to imply that MDMA is necessarily safe -- I just don't think that there is conclusive evidence that infrequent use of it is neurotoxic at the dosages people ordinarily take.
I certainly do not want to give anyone a false sense of security about the stuff -- but I don't think the verdict is in yet about the actual risk of neurotoxicity to the infrequent user of typical dosages, that's all.
