I'm going on here about it's good to keep in reasonable nick, then there's a high-profile case of one individual getting into body-difficulties though he's fitter than a fiddle.
'You don't know who/what to believe. So as well to do nothing, drift with the crowd'.
Or you'll be saying possibly: "Great One , what is the truth? Lay it on us; tell us". My own answer is that one can without the greatest difficulty see through the APPARENT contradictions. It takes, per my own experience, a lot of study. If I could think of a quicker way I'd say it.
I personally don't take a lot of shortcuts in sussing these areas out. When I've looked fairly carefully/thoroughly at what information is available, things are less confused. (My researching of whatever, long preceded the internet and my interest in the internet)
For me it takes book-length study.
Keep the faith.
