I saw that before you changed your mind. I do understand being suspicious of pharmaceuticals companies, doctors, etc., but there is a huge difference between suspicion and buying into a conspiracy theory.

Personally, I don't look down on anyone for being suspicious; I do look down on people for talking about what "they" don't want you to know.

The problem with this mindset is that most of the "counter-studies" are done by the very companies in question. As has been shown with the NSA recently, not all conspiracies theories are far out there and improbable. We're talking BILLIONS of dollars at stake. People stop caring when money is involved. It's not the same thing as talking about Area 51. You have to take everything with a grain of salt.
