It would be better for those participating in this on-line exchange, 
particularly when they attempt a principled stance (to quote from the 
previous post: "civility, political philosophy, and logical consistency"), 
carefully to read the articles they criticise. Francis actually said:

It seems pretty clear that this refers to the Journal as a whole, not to 
this special issue.

Cheers,

J.
