If they weren't so busy *generating* mud, there would be none to sling. The fact that there is interests me, because the "winding down" of cults and spiritual groups interests me. I find it far more interesting than the "winding up." Every group is "born" more or less the same way, but the ones that "die" always seem to find their own unique way to do it. But yours is a good point, and I've been considering lately whether this group represents a waste of my time. There was a time, when I first joined it, that people talked about interesting spiritual experiences of their own, "non-demoninational" spiritual experiences, not copyrighted TM-brand spiritual experiences or Other People's Experiences. But that time seems to have come and gone. Perhaps it's my time to go as well. We'll see...
