It looks like a clear case of cognitive dissonance. Cognitive dissonance, is 
the discomfort experienced when someone holds two or more conflicting beliefs 
or ideas, both at the same time.

 Just as an example of how ludicrous your Big Game Hunter efforts are: In a  
post to Xeno today, first you declare that there is something terribly wrong 
with True Believers. Then in the very next paragraph, you claim that what's 
wrong with them is that they think there's something wrong with unbelievers. 

After all, you did say: 

 In a very real sense, being a True Believer -- in pretty much *anything* -- is 
a form of handicap. TBs are cripples or "impaired persons," in that they lack 
abilities that others around them take for granted. What is worse is that they 
don't *know* that they are crippled.

 Just a word about the elephant in the room that the thug apologists have so 
carefully been tiptoeing around: It was never criticism of TM/the TMO/MMY that 
TM supporters found intolerable. It was the relentless vicious and dishonest 
personal attacks, led by Barry, on those TM supporters that finally triggered 
the mass exodus to The Peak. Barry and his gang of thugs know this but are 
doing their best to make it appear otherwise, because the truth is embarrassing.
 

 I see that since she's been gone Judy has developed the same "spotty reading" 
habits she used to deride. She's foolishly attempting to use a tactic I already 
described in a post made only yesterday.  :-)  :-)  :-)
