I think it's a legitimate issue. The TMO has a 40-year history of being willing to violate social conventions and even its laws (money-laundering, for example) if it feels that the questionable action would somehow benefit the TMO or make it more able to spread its message. It's *very much* an "ends justify the means" organization. My point is that mindset "trickles down." When people see the leaders of the TM organization able to justify or make excuses for questionable ethics, they tend to do so themselves. ------------------------ Yahoo!
