It is not about join or you'll be sorry, it is learning the importance loving everyone through word and deed.

Anyone can post on Wikipedia and express their views and although I like Wikipedia, it is still biased. Susan Blackmore expressed her opinion, but she was not there. Neither were the others who expressed their opinions. Charles would have continued his study had not the woman moved away. I did nothing to misrepresent the account. What I posted was from the account and I didn't change one word.
*Bolding mine*
Research papers lay out their methodology so others who weren't there can review them and determine if there were problems with the manner in which the experiments were conducted or with the interpretation of the results and, if possible, to repeat the experiments under controlled circumstances to either confirm or disconfirm the previous findings. That's not bias. That's science.
Susan Blackmore made a statement that does absolutely show bias.
