Doug, I don't have a clue about the TMO's money situation. I was astonished initially to see Sal say it was bankrupt financially, because everything I've heard is to the contrary. All the *complaints* have been about how much money it has and continues to accumulate. But it turns out that isn't what Sal meant to say. Her complaint is that the TMO's funds aren't being used for what they're supposed to be used for. And as I said above that you quote, I'm not disputing that. So why are you demanding that I account for the money? I didn't make any claims one way or the other. Sal's complaint may well be valid, for all I know. As to MMY's integrity, the only thing I'm pretty sure of is that he isn't in this for the money. How his real purpose--to spiritually regenerate the world--relates to what he does with the money, whether he does it with integrity or not, I couldn't begin to tell you. My only personal concern is whether the way he's handling the money gets in the way of achieving his purpose. If so, that's obviously a Bad Thing. If he's doing it without integrity, that's Not a Good Thing either. Same if what he lacks isn't integrity but competence. I just don't know which is the case. But none of this is the point I was making. Have I made myself clear now?
