"and when he walked off the stage he did so in all his magnificence and beauty and elegance."

Oh gawd preserve us! I am stunned. I check in here, flip over to ELK and see that this stuff is still going on! Its 2005 for gods sake and sentences like this are still happening!!!! "All his magnificence and beauty and elegance"!!! Talk about having "Issues"

And above in Jim's post the quoted writer claims: "They know all about the arguments, they understand the accusations.." I can imagine the intoxicated premie reading that and it becoming an instant tenet of his/her belief that they really have examined all the arguments surrounding their path of bhakti. Just like that, no thinking necessary-cos it said so on ELK!

Then all you have to do is avoid actual discussion with any live ex and you can rest assured that you have covered all the bases.You are now the elite of the elite. 

Fine.Ho hum.
