It's the *volume* they find disconcerting (if they do), not the content--IMO.

They may be open to all kinds of other stuff, but
what many of them are *not* open to is anything
that conflicts with their certainty that MMY is a
scam artist, a liar, a narcissistic personality,
etc., etc., etc.

Do you really believe that?

Also note that nowhere did Lawson say that he had
been convinced that he knew everything worth knowing,
but rather that the kind of discussion that takes
place *on this forum* doesn't necessarily contribute
to what is worth knowing. 

Then why does he participate endlessly, clogging up the forum with, mostly, one-liners that seem almost surely intended to provoke?

And he went on to say
that what *does* contribute to what is worth
knowing is meditating and living life.

Great. Maybe you could tell him to get out and do more of it.
Obviously, if you were convinced you already knew
everything worth knowing, you wouldn't think
meditating and living life would be contributing
anything either.

Once again, Barry, because your main purpose was
to construct a putdown, you didn't actually read
what Lawson was saying.  Instead, you made up
words and put them in his mouth, then condemned
him for saying precisely the opposite of what he
*was* saying.

You could use a hefty dose of it yourself.

Couldn't we all, at times.
