I see Aileen retreating in defense because of the ofensive behavior on this website---Its like we are in group agian and there are no leaders, and all of a sudden its open feed back time. And plus I see a chunk of people here urging even promoting there hurt feelings of MMS to the people that are even nuetral. Attraction is a much better sorce to use to sell something, and there is really nothing attractive or useful here. It feels like shit being here and anybody that feels happy when they get off this website must really like being in a dark hole, filled will lots of stinky poo thier own shit.
Gossip is nothing but damaging. The ramification reach far into the individuals being torn apart. But I see this as far worse and easier to do especially behind the viels of Anonymity. This is worse then gossip on the playground, Shallow, flimsy, and just as inneffective and violent.
I have seen most messages meet with defensiveness, This is my observations. Everytime that I write something I feel like I am throwing a piece of bloody meat into the ring and all of you attack it and then send it back to me askewed with some strange twist.
I don't want any response I just want people to ponder and be open to eachother. That is the minority here.
Remember that some of us love eachother.-

Just to clear things up. I set up this new forum on Kathy's request. I hope I haven't been such an ass as to totally alienate anybody. Yes, I admit it, I'm harsh and cold and downright mean sometimes. The one thing that gets my goat every damned time, no matter how hard I try to get a handle on it, is Program apologist talking down to those who, given the same oportunity, rejected the Program. And MMS must be an awful lot like Straight because even your language, never mind the philosophy, is quite similar.
What's John Mercer's bacground again? Was he a Seedling or a Synanite or a CEDU graduate or something? Daytop of Phoenix House, maybe?
At any rate, I apologize for my rage and frequent lack of patience. You'd think I'd know better by now and be more understanding. But some old wounds run deep and seem to never heal properly. Yes, that's an excuse. FWIW, I think I'm a good deal less hostile and more thoughtful about it than I used to be. Almost every time I talk to Don Smith (host of StraightIncAlumni) I apologize to him. Few years back he was actually scared I was going to physically do him harm.
In God's wildness lies the hope of the world x the great fresh unblighted, unredeemed wilderness. The galling harness of civilization drops off, and wounds heal ere we are aware.

Hey Ginger,
John Mercer and co formed MMS after leaving Spring Creek (Lodge?). The place that I believe has also been accused of being abusive also located in Montana.
John has a degree and a masters in ecology. This qualifies him to deal with emotinally troubled kids, address the various types of abuse and facillitate group therapy because ...? Your guess is as good as mine.

Ok, that explains some of it. You know SCL is a WWASP program, right? I wonder if MMS takes WWASP referals or not?
