sorry Pat, don't quite follow that - what's the all important basic level? I mean you can swap Rawat for any number of other cult leaders can't you. and people did, swapped him for the TM group a lot. and then later on people left Rawat only to take up with Jesus or Buddha or the Dalai llama and I think the intensity of the experience of a Trump rally would equate to the early days with more excitement at DLM programs.
I agree the political system is corrupt and decaying that's the same here too, yes the West is in decline and I hate it too. But I'm far more bothered by the Evangelicals, I can spit chips on the subject of evangelism, I see them as the delivery trucks for the koolaid and do not think they are 'part of the furniture' - their insanity must be appeased by the highest in the land, Mr Trump Himself.
I don't want to burn the house down either. Preferably I'd rather not get burnt at all. I am scared of people. They are more and more unhinged and I think that is inevitably going to get worse with the coming generation. It's like there is a developing intolerance of the idea of an objective reality. Nowadays you can get into trouble just for mentioning it. ooh that's so old-fashioned, such binary thinking but the fact is we all have to live in it and I don't see people jumping off cliffs saying I can fly yet.
