Agreed, Art. There's only so much any of us can do to help break ppl out of these mental gulags. If they're looking for any excuse to reject the outside world, they'll find it no matter how scrupulously anybody tries to elimanate any vestige of offensive material. I'm still not interested in playing that game. I danced on that tightrope for most of my childhood and still revel in the fact that I don't have to do that any more.
I'm not asking anyone to give out any info that this lady hasn't already posted publicly. I'm just offering to engage her in some meaningful dialog about what goes through our minds when we've started breaking away from the cult mind. Aparently, that sort of discussion is not tolerated on Ken's site. Here, anything goes. You just ignore the stuff you're not interested in and focus on what you are interested in. It's absolutely necessary, I think, to master that concept if you want out of a cult mindset.
I tried not to work for, you know, anyone who ate children with their bare hands. I won't pretend that I was ideologically consistent.
