Do any of you James Ray followers ask him if he knows what he is doing in that lodge? Whats the name of the person who taught him that and would they vouch for him? Did he ask if anyone had any health concerns before they went in? Did you EVEN ask questions? Are you discouraged from asking questions or looked down on if you do? Are you given real answers that you are satisfied with?
Before you went into that lodge did you feel you could trust that man with your life?
If I dont feel any safe answers to these questions about someone who says they can run a sweat. I DON'T go in.
ANYONE CAN TELL YOU THAT THEY ARE CAPABLE OR ALLOWED TO RUN A SWEAT!! Not everyone is telling you the truth.
Look up "New age Fraud" before you try to attend one of these things you call a "native american ritual" run by some nonnative who was taught by some white guy who was taught by his mom who was adopted into the XXX tribe became their medicine woman!!! why? cuz that's a lie!!!

I say this because no one seems to question people that do this. I believe those people died and got hurt because James Ray didn't know how to properly run that lodge. Did anyone ask questions?
For all here, read the comments, "native women" makes, then maybe you will stop being a follower of the, "I blame every one else in my life for my decisions, crusade".
Ursus the originator of this thread is a strong believer in this and would like to convince you that with a fist full of money and a lawyer you too can be like me. Make any decision you want and not worry about the consequences, it is not your fault. I know doesn't make any sense.
Danny, I fully agree with your resonance with native woman's advocating for common sense and critical assessment. If more people approached important decisions in their life this way, then maybe we'd have a lot less of these unfortunate incidents brought about by the greed of irresponsible quacks and hucksters (kinda like what happens in a lot of these programs in the TTI, if you ask me).
However,
lack of common sense and critical thought does not necessarily equate to a
"blam[ing] every one else in my life for my decisions crusade." Nor does lack of common sense and critical thought on the part of James Ray sweat lodge participants, if such is what it was, in any way lessen or even impact
the moral culpability of James Ray and James Ray International for running the sweat lodge the way it was apparently run.
Incidentally, speaking of a "blam[ing] every one else in my life for my decisions crusade," where on earth do you get the idea that
*I* ... am a "strong believer in this?" And
where, pray tell, does the picture of "a fist full of money and a lawyer" come from? Have your sooper seekret "sources" been bending your ear too much? :rofl: Be careful where those "voices" from, ol' chap, you don't wanna get played for a fool.
Btw, I am also not the originator of this thread, although I kinda doubt that this fact will in any way sway your belief. I am under few illusions, at this point, that such a minor detail could possibly impact the sheer magnitude of your apparently quite strongly held preconceptions.
