Rheghead has previously claimed we have to accept 'expert' views unconditionally, therefore he cannot challenge their impartiality when the expert view does not fit with his beliefs
Well yes the impartiality has to be questioned because in the dairy cancer thread I was at pains to post many scientific studies that were impartial which suggest that dairy products were linked to increased risk of cancer and many other illnesses. They were many and people were getting fed up with the wealth of evidence against dairy. I wanted to show that the science was real and was impartial.
And then your first attempt at posting a scientific study which suggests that dairy is not linked heart attacks and strokes is actually funded by the dairy industry. A disclaimer which says that the sponsorship does not affect the findings has to be questioned in the same way that climate studies which are sponsored by the oil industry has to be viewed with suspicion. Even if the dairy sponsored 100 studies to get one study which supports their agenda and sales and they retain and not publish the other 99 studies is not impartial. They have cherry picked the study.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
