When you are talking about "citing your sources", I am saying I have written a white paper on this very issue, which I just posted. It has many sources and citations within, and has much more updated information more recently than 2014.
Cheers!

You are making this logical fallacy:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_authority
Doctors smoke cigarettes and recommend it as healthy, doctors are authority so we must trust they know what they are talking about? No. Let the evidence speak for itself and anyone can decide which way to think about it without a care on that. If anyone determines my approach isn't scientific then they can just counter my blog post with one of their own which is more accurate. If they turn out to be right then I just change my opinions, but until that happens this is my opinion.
I posted my white paper, because in fact i agree with a LOT of the things you say in the white paper, but because I have already done the work i'm not going to redo it here. I simply post the white paper.
I agree with a lot of your blogs, and i am only offering counterpoints to give you a different perspective.
If you want to completely write them off because I don't feel like posting a link right NOW, fine...but i think if you read my white paper, you will realize that would be a huge mistake...
I don't write off your perspective. I realize we have similar goals here. I might not take the exact same approach but I don't have the same knowledge, information, or advice. Just know, when I do make decisions it's based on the best available knowledge, information, and advice I have at the time.
No, I'm not making a logical fallacy. I am pointing out that i have done the research, and you're not reading it.
