To The Point

Isn't the point of writing something for a journal to educate? - Why then, when people submit articles, are they so incomprehensibly inconsistent that only those who were present during the actual study could possibly comprehend them? If all the writings of the world were suddenly destroyed and the only things to survive were social science journal articles, our posterity would think us utterly ridiculous. Of this I am sure.
