The implication was that if you had any skepticism whatsoever, you were anti-science. I think there's a difference between having skepticism about science and having skepticism about the pharmaceutical industry.

It can take years of tears to melt the hardness that develops in this world, covering our tender, gentler inner selves.

We all make mistakes, we all have fears, and we all have weaknesses. Behind all that is our essential self.
