I've debated with myself about whether or not i should get involved in this thread... I will just try to say a few things concisely, lol, if i can.
Albert, i don't disagree too much with what you've been saying here, and i've never felt that NDW was particularly intune, clear, high level, etc, but this entire thread seems to belong better in the Off topic section than maybe here?

Not that your 2 cents are needed. For instance, I have been told that many people in Ireland no longer go to church, a reaction to the realization of years of manipulation and betrayal. I guess that is the way things evolve. Probably will with the club of 1000 also.
Lucy, yes, you've said this time and time again on this site. One time i answered your question and put it into logical context for you, when i was being vocal in discrimination about some sources.
Basically, the short version of what i said before goes like this: Most people at this site do not seem to be conventionally religious, but are more alternative minded and there also seems to be a lot of westerner's on this site. For us many westerners here-- gurus, channelers, etc are more "alternative" to mainstream Christian religions.
Hence, speaking against Catholic priests, etc. which already is pretty widely publicized, well accepted as truth, etc. anyways, one would be wasting one's breath in "preaching to the choir" here at "Afterlife Knowledge". Most of us are WELL aware of these issues, think they are horrible, but know religion in the mainstream sense is dying in more places than not.
What most here don't seem to be aware of as much, are the more subtle and less publicized issues with the more attractive to us, "alternative" sources such as found in the New Age and still yet "exotic" Eastern worlds. It's like going from Bush to Obama. One is much easier to see issues with, but we're still getting hoodwinked folks!
Many here seem to be much more interested in such sources--hence, if there is abuse, fraud, and the like going on in those worlds, it makes more sense to "Whistle blow" HERE in regards to these rather than to beating a dead horse with molesting Catholic priests, Church greed, etc, cause like we haven't deal with that for 1500 yrs or so.

Rather, it seems that you are more personally annoyed with the poster than just what he is talking about. It's curious to me how people react to these things. On one hand, some are preaching tolerance and nonjudgmentalism to a poster here, but yet subtly telling him what he should or shouldn't be doing, why, how he is wasting his time, etc. and seem to get personally annoyed with him more than with than his annoyance of general corruption, greed, and abuse in the New Age and Eastern worlds which are so much more attractive to more of us than humdrum Presbyterianism, Catholicism, etc
Apparently the irony of the situation is lost on these same folks?
But remember this (and yes, i am preaching to you folks--what's the saying, "if you got it, flaunt it" well girlfriends and Sha-nay-nays, I gotz it (hand motions Now).... to each of us is given different roles in this life, and until we become PUL personified we cannot and will not be "all things to all people", but have our roles, our Schick, if you will.
For some, it is the "Whistle blower", for others it is the preacher of tolerance, for others it's the intellectual questioner and clarifier, and for others it's the the loud mouth preacher--you get my point.
I for one, am quite happy that in the business and political worlds, there are people and organizations that play the "Whistle Blower" role and bring to our attention potential fraud, abuse, etc which then make it easier for me to direct my intuitive and critical faculities towards such sources helping me to more quickly discriminate truth from falsehood.
Why do we value such whistle blowers in so many other areas of our lives, and yet so devalue or get annoyed by those whose "whistle blower" role is within the spiritual and consciousness? Why do we judge so quickly and harshly these, as if we knew what's in their hearts?
Yes, of course it's up to each of us to decide for ourselves what is relative truth or not, and if i was approaching this issue on this site, i would have just briefly stated the alleged allegations and then recommended, if one had sufficient interest, to get in touch with the highest level guidance one can, and discriminate from that "space" the truth or not of the matter.
