I published three times in P One. Is my career ruined? Were the detractors right about the journal?

Ok. I am deeply sorry for you (in spite of not knowing what you published in this journal), I am sorry for all my fellow colleagues and friends that published serious research in this journal. But this was not the first time that rubish non sense (in this case, regarding the discussion and conclusion, in others cases, regarding a faulty methodology, sensasionalism, etc.). But, seriously... detractors? This is not about being a detractor, this is about somebody has to do something in order to fix the damage that this article made to the entire scientific comunity as DI guys now have at least one paper to spread their creationist non sense forever and ever. Again, I am so sorry for you and I can identify to your concerns.

for "detractors" I meant people in the past that were seriously concerned about P One. People that said that the journal is not serious, and so on. As you said, this is not the first instance of a questionable article. People worried about the journal were right, then? This is what I meant.
