Are we still talking about the New Freedom Init? Exactly why are we talking about the clams, anyway.
Why did this discussion start?
Good question.
I would have to research the database to get the exact cause which I am not going to do, I hope that is ok.
Basically, Deborah called me paranoid for mentioning psychiatry and Scientology. She also said they had no implact. Or she implied, whatever.
So I started doing google searches on Scientology.
I was stunned and learning what I did about the COS in general and they certainly do influence poeple's choice of treatments utilizing front groups and invalidating any experiences patients may have had other than their own belief syste. There was no, hey we have an alternative method if you want to check us out, type of evangelism.
Then regarding Deborah, I chose to start doing simple searches to check her "references + Scientology". When her references came up as front groups for the COS, according to the search results, I posted them.
I figured it was time for a history lesson, and the right place was this article was thread called Scientology TM.
I didn't want to burden anyone by posting the numberous articles in this one LA Times series, so I decided, on my own, to post one a day. Members of Fornit's got inflamed and posted insults and the issue rose to everyone's attention, according to the number of views.
I thought initially I would just post the articles and people would read them, that is all. I guess because it became popular to read and in vogue to insult me that attention came upon this thread.
It wasn't until yesterday that I learned that I was flooding the fornits server.
Although, in reality, it still seems to me that it is ok for Deborah and others to pile on a topic by posting numerous same informtion articles over and over again. But, I will observe and learn and it probably is not flooding.
Regarding just posting reference links, without the whole article, there is a danger there also. I realize yesterday for instance that Deborah posted a link as a reference, and obviously did not read it. She was using it to reveal questions sent to to the AMA by ablechild.org, which had no link to them.
I questioned her, she then posted the portion of the original link that I knew would have inflamed her, proving BTW, to me, in my opinion that she didn't read her refernce in the first place. Then, as she always does, ignored my question and posted yet another rant. Whatever, I am not going to dialogue with her anymore anyhow, and that is a relief.
So, ok, if you don't want the whole articles and would like me to choose a relevant point, when I believe the articles are completely relevant, and well written then ok, no problem. That is not my first choice, and truthfully I am uncomfortable editing and already finely edited series. But for the sake of putting up some historical information to counter Deborah's misrepretention of Scientology's impact on anti-psychiatry advocacy, then ok.
