Barr stated: "[...]It's the OBSESSION aspect of Carol's activities that turns me off, not the particular intended victim. To me, she came across since Day One of trying to get people on this forum to join her in dissing John as fuckin' out of control, obsessed with John Knapp, and willing to do pretty much *anything* to "get" him for whatever the perceived insult to her she can't get over was. As I remember it from the little I read of her original distasteful rants, all she claimed that he did was to tell her he wasn't going to work with her as her therapist any more. I wasn't interested in anything more about her ostensible motivations, because her whole VIBE was that of the Spurned Psychopath.
So that's why I'm speaking up. I DON'T CARE about John Knapp. But I *do* care about obsessives trying to "get" the people they don't like, and turning their obsession into almost a full-time profession. This woman seems to have written literally thousands of Internet posts and blog posts trying to "get" her former cult (The Way International) and/or John Knapp. Having dealt with obsessive cyberstalkers before in my life, I hate when I see others being stalked by them. Speaking of obsessive psychopathic cyberstalkers, one will probably reply to this trying to turn this discussion into a demonization of John Knapp, and hoping (like Carol) to get as many people as possible involved in dumping on him and whatever wrongs they think he's done. So I'm replying at some length to make one thing clear -- I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT JOHN KNAPP. I'M NOT SAYING THIS BECAUSE I LIKE HIM OR AM TRYING TO 'DEFEND' HIM. I'M SAYING IT BECAUSE I DISLIKE CYBERSTALKERS." So you consider my 1-1/2 years few recent posts on here as obsessive? Or perhaps because I have a blog and write, that's obsessive? I've probably have written 1000s of comments online since I first came to the internet in 2006 after leaving The Way in 2005. As far as The Way, I haven't dissed it much, comparatively speaking. Again, you are stating that I have hopes of people joining me in dumping on Knapp? So, you are a mind reader? ;D No, others who want to can dump on Knapp without any convincing from me. I'm not much into group gangs obsessing over people and name calling and judging other's motives. It's not my cup of tea. Which you would discover if you ever wanted to make a full-time profession of reading my 1000s of online writings which you seem to already know about? Speaking of hopes. I do have a hope of hiking the Appalachian Trail. I really want to thru-hike one day. It's been a dream since high school, and now that I'm in my 50s, I'm finally almost healthy enough to see that dream happen. I hope I am able to do it. I have other hopes too...but none involve dumping on Knapp. Thanks though for your evaluation.
