1.  You really should give some thought to John's question about Marolyn's views of Rawat and how they differ from your own.  Remember how Rawat routinely used her as a crowd warm-up for years?  How her satsangs were given such prominence in all the publications?  No one in their right mind could ever argue that Rawat wasn't then approving of her expressions. Mind you, when talking with premies, you never know what they'll come up with so I'll wait to hear from you on this.  For all I know, maybe you will argue that Rawat didn't have a clue what she was saying or, if he did, those were just her views and in no way reflect on his own.  That's why this is so much "fun".

2.  If you really want to see something interesting, I invite you to go through the archives and look for old posts of SHP, Deputy Dog or Mel Bourne.  There are several others but those three come to mind right now.  Like you, all three tried to explain away Rawat's quotes one way or the other for years.  Eventually, they all folded and accepted the truth, that Rawat is a duplicitous cult leader.  Eventually, they all left and found freedom again.
