Fair enough Dallas. Citing sources is expected in informative and (and sometimes) persuasive essays, and I agree that a case might be made for using them on a chat board. However, scholarship is much more than citing sources and implies the application of methodology. Graduate and post graduate degrees are supposed to be evidence that one has been trained in the methodology or methodologies of a given field. Whether or not one applies those skills, is another question.

word 'scholarship' only to indicate the need to back up anything one said
about THEOSOPHY with a respected or primary source ALL COULD REFER TO.]
