I was just going to say, sprinkling in some facts with religious dogma isn't a trick I'm susceptible to fall to.
It's like stating that there are starving people (true), and that if you don't feed them your soul burns for eternity (faith statement).
Lots of truth statements followed by faith statements. Not saying that faith statements aren't also correct, only that they don't follow from statements of fact.
I'm willing to have this discussion for the millionth time, but I doubt the mods are going to tolerate it.
...and the part that made me chuckle the most was this statement

It’s also important to listen to indigenous traditional and local knowledge

It's begging the question of "why". I wouldn't consult American Indians from the 1600s on how to function in this modern world... and I am indigenous, native to America. I was born here and have every right that anyone else born here has.
