Andries,

In fairness to you, Andries, Henna and Jonti need to know that English isn't your first language, but there's still no excuse for this bullshit that you wrote!!!

Henna, What I mean to say is that some former followers feel betrayed and feel harmed by Rawat and due to this feeling they will likely see Rawat as more evil than he really is. Same for me and my former guru Sathya Sai Baba. SSB is probably a person with no mental health problems but some former follower see him as a sociopath. And yes, I saw it like that too for some time.

Andries, Sai Baba is a known PEDOPHILE!!!!  That, at the very least is a mental illness, and at the worst is CRIMINAL behavior.  Look it up.  It's both a mental illness and criminal.

You'd never get away with making a statement like this on one of the many ex-Sai Baba forums, which, btw, is where you should be posting, not here. I've read those forums, Andries, and those people are NOT nuts, as you told me.

You're a cult apologist, Andries, plain and simple.  You endorse all of the scholars who are known cult apologists, but refuse to discuss the issue when you've been challenged here.    

Andries, you ignorantly minimize the horrible crimes (YES, CRIMES!) of your guru, Sai Baba, a known child abuser, who ex-SSB people want to see convicted and placed in prison.  SSB has sexually abused so many children within his cult.  And this isn't about sociopathy, it's about pedophila within your cult. 

Stop minimizing what your Guru did to innocent children just to make yourself feel better, Andries.  You have no right to do that, especially on this forum!  That's a heartless thing to do, and I know because I am a survivor of child sexual abuse, Andries, GET IT?  I know about these things, and you DON'T!!!
