You might have overlooked this part: "I'm not taking a test (feel free to answer yourself)".

I didn't ignore that part. I interpreted it as your way of saying that you intended to state your opinion without offering supporting argument.

[mmooss]

You misinterpreted it: It meant I (and others) aren't here to take your tests nor are interested in your grades.

If that's what you think is happening – tests and grades – when people come to a site whose purpose is to foster thoughtful and substantive discussions, and then on that site they share ideas and invite criticism of them, you might consider whether you're missing something.

[mmooss]

It was only your comment.

[tmoertel]

I'm curious. What specifically about my comment made you believe it was a test and that I would be assigning grades to responses, as opposed to an idea for which I invited criticism?
