No one's words should be taken as a gospel. Everyone's words should be read accordingly: interpret words objectively, assume good faith, apply healthy skepticism.
Now you are being like Bek (actually, I think that Bek acting a parody of you with all his repetition, doing exactly what you do, but simply not rephrasing things each time). If everyone here is utterly misunderstanding Forester based on what he wrote, then, please, it should be relatively easy for you to pull out some of his statements and explain to all of us plebes where we are misinterpreting things.
If it's not so easy to correct the misinterpretation, then perhaps some people here have a point. Hint: standard rules in academics states that it's not plagarism if the comment was published to the public and proper recognition of the author is given. So, please, put up some of Forester's writings (or link to them) and give your analysis of them. If there is a misunderstanding or misinterpretation, then it should be revealed pretty quickly.
Otherwise, quit being like a big brother. I doubt that a man like Forester needs or wants your protection from us apes in these forums.
