<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kasia, post: 1271063, member: 31533&quot;]Why not research what RESEARCH is, before continuing to show your ignorance of what research is, what it entails, how it is accomplished, its&#039; purpose and the requirements for it to be considered research, etc. You might also be lead down the path that gives you information on what a source is, what type of source a source is, whether it is reliable, how to find whether a source is reliable or not, how to weigh your source material, as well as being able to fully document the same. All useful information if you ever want to inform someone of how you got your piece(s) of information and how you obtained your conclusions.</p><p><br /></p><p>Asking a singular question to get an answer to that singular question is not research. It never has been, nor will it ever be. Giving the excuse ahead of time that your posed question is research doesn&#039;t negate the fact that it isn&#039;t.&nbsp; It is a fallacy that you can label something ahead of time and by consequence, make it so. Except in your own mind. It is, simply, the lazy person&#039;s approach to research.</p><p><br /></p><p>Secondly, just because some books and online are not accurate, you want to ditch all that in favor of what people operating under assumed names are telling you, just because they belong to a particular forum? Unbelievable! And if I want to know about a certain star or planet and I ask an astronomer what it is and to tell me something about it ---- then it is not research, it is simply an inquisitive inquiry into a limited piece of knowledge that I don&#039;t have, and the astronomer (I&#039;m presuming) does.&nbsp; And NEITHER is looking up a particular answer to a particular question in a book research.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
