Karen, you who have no personal experience of what the wwasps program provides in the personal growth seminars concludes,""MAYBE the program experience, for this kid, had the effect of making him prone to giving a false confession."
First, they don't give false confessions in a wwasp program, unless they choose to hide out and "look good" by a false confession. There's no payoff for that. If this kid gave a false confession, it wasn't his short program experience, it was the police, etc., that seem to do this on a regular basis.
"Living IN the world, in relationships requires a radical commitment to the practice of truth-telling. The intimacy that nourishes,fulfills and inspires us in relationships depends on our willingness to share deeply from our present-moment experiencing. Sharing the flow of this experiencing holds the potential to carry us down through layers of separation into an experience of the wholess at our core." - David Jecmen, Radical Living. :wink:
