This is more than a little insulting. But I'm sure it was your intent. >The more sensible people who >read this 'crap' will tend to turn off associating themselves with >the 'anti' side even though these are the same people who are most likely >to be in a position to help in one way or another. There is no 'anti side'. It is *my* battle. I was engaged in it long before I had your support, and I will continue fighting the cult now that I have lost it. >Dead agenting ala like the OSA of people whom don't exactly agree with >you is one of the best ways drive people from the groupwhom might have >been otherwise good sources of information. When I start digging up old parking tickets on you, rifling through your confessions for material to discredit you, digging up people to say you were a criminal, suing you, raiding your house and taking your private data ... *then* you could correctly make such a comparison. Until I engage in such actions you simply are displaying your total ignorance about what the cult does to critics (ala dead agent). >I wanted Andrew to stay, but invective from some people whom >are my collegues seems to have driven him away. You have his e-mail address. Or am I somehow mystically stopping you from corresponding with him privately, too? >Ian Sheesh! +--------------------------------------+ Rev.
