    But I've always applauded Christian for the quantity of content he produces. He obviously has a passion for the sport and is a staunch advocate/promoter of its athletes. Kudos to him. http://www.StrengthAddicts.com is his baby, his brand, and it's a good thing to have someone like him as a contributor to any website.

    Do I agree with him always? No way.

    Do I agree that he needs a thicker skin at times (like ALWAYS)? Yes.

    But, hey, who enjoys criticism, right?

    You ask too many questions

    And it's quality not quantity that matters. At least that's what she said.

    I enjoy Christian's articles. I like articles that create discussion and controversy. Get's people talking and debating and makes them exercise their brains.

    Christian's personality should not be mentioned when discussing his articles. How he treats others has nothing to do with the quality of his writing.

    Curt, you and Jeremy should get together to watch movies. You are both filmophiles or "moving image enthusiasts". Hey I like movies too, but you guys probably see more than I do.

    Writing is something that can be subjective as well. While some can just be amazingly eloquent and speak to volumes others resonate with a smaller following. I think the "ear and eyes" of the "reader" might stand true. I think as always though it is what unites us, IRON, that matters most so in that I am supportive.

    I also think as The Prodigious One stated, although challenging to do at times, forgetting who is doing the writing and just reading the content is a great way to leave our presuppositions aside and just experience, learn and potentially grow.

    That was deep, probably one of the most thought-provoking pieces I've read online in a long time. Good stuff.
