Defamation Does Not Degrade Credentials

I find it incredible that people will go to any lengths to try and discredit an individual, if that individual happens to disagree with their opinion on a subject.

This guy -
Gordon
Location: Livingston, West Lothian




has just such a mission by picking on Dr Grady McMurtry and trying to highlight things which he believes discredit the man and therefore discredit his 'opinion' or his scientific reasoning.

I'm not going into detail but I will say this;

Gordon,from Livingston, cites his credentials as

I have an HND in communication studies and an LTh degree from Edinburgh University (Divinity). My interests include trumpet playing, photography, atheism, Christianity as a social phenomenon and historical crimes.
(My emphasis)

Well,all I can say is that Gordon, from Livingston, by the rule of your own measuring stick I say you are not qualified to investigate anyone and defame them in any way. You haven't been to Uni to study Investigations and Defamation.

Yes, that's how ridiculous you sound too.



His family background?
His name got me wondering if he was related to Grady Louis McMurtry whom I had heard of as one of the leaders of the Thelema religion founded by Aleister Crowley.



Is it really necessary to attack the guy's family background. It's a bit low. So what, if he hasn't discussed who his father was or is avoiding the subject? Maybe the man is not his father. Who cares? Except you that is.
