When you investigate a claim, how deep do you dig into what people have said? Do you recreate the claim to see if you get the same result?

I was just curious if anyone had any personal opinion on how deep you dig into a claim someone makes.

For example: A newletter claimed that diet soda causes cancer. I dug into the new article and found the doctor who ran the study. Then I proceeded to review the actual case study and his opinion on the outcome. It ended up that he did not hold the opinion that diet sodas caused cancer, and that that was not what his study was proving. He said it was possible, but the evidence wasn't there as a result of what he found.

So then the newsletter lied just to get a sensational response from people...essentially fearmongering. So if I had not done this digging, then I would have believed based on that newsletter that diet sodas cause cancer. While they might, my point is, that study did not claim that, so how deep do you often dig?

I want to hear your opinions. Not on the study, but on a topic of your choice, how deep you've dug or if you just focus on the surface and let people lead you where they wish.

I have been digging into Reveltion 12, and I find myself seeing that this Chapter has already happened, the accuser was cast down.

I also have been pressing into clothing myself with the Word of God, not just any Bible verse, but the Word that PROCEEDS from the mouth of God, and what the Spirit is saying to the church. That this mortal be clothed in immortality and this corruptible be clothed in incorruption, that I might be the first person to see the manifestation of death's defeat accomplished through Jesus' finished work on the cross.

I have also been pressing into understand the peace of God that I've come to realize is not just a feeling but a mindset.

I am realizing that I get better understanding when I explain God and His ways to others versus during my own personal study time.

I have come to realize that truly it is better to give than to receive.

I have come to realize that God is real and all temporal things are nothing in comparison to His reality.

I generally believe things like "you will die if you jump off a 4-storey building" without testing the hypothesis myself! :-)

I like answers but no one else I know does.
