I can't believe you wrote all of these things.I disagree with everything.
However, I have a mind that is ready to take a look at any citations you would like to provide us with.
Those are some very weighty conclusions you have come to. I would recommend that anyone who is inclined to be influenced by your post do their own research.
What turned you? Disappointment?
