Hey, Alex I enjoy just about all your posts and I remember our Waking Down days 
with a little smile.  But I am not anti Robin.  I am anti whatever it is in him 
that still blocks and distorts his gifts.  Whatever it is in him that then 
contributes to his group becoming so polarized against everyone else.  It's 
that black and white thinking again in them:  that unless one thinks he's 
wonderful all the time, then one is supposedly out for his blood and wanting to 
crucify him, both phrases that Judy used.  

BTW Raunchy, this kind of language from Judy is what I mean by enabling in this 
context.  Obviously in an online situation no one is supplying a physical fix.  
Not only is such language enabling of an unhealthy dynamic, it's also extreme 
thus creating more polarity.  And yes, the Robin group is very loyal.  But it 
doesn't seem balanced to me.  It's as if he's right all the time and so is his 
group.  And anyone who disagrees with him or it is all wrong.  And yes Emily 
you did accuse me of enabling Barry.  No big deal.  It's such a preposterous 
idea.  

Of course Robin himself uses extreme language as when he attributed the jezebel 
and termagant labels for Judy to his questioners.  And several labels to them 
about himself:  reprobate, not changed one iota, etc.  This is a double whammy.

Anyway, I'm not about to use DSM IV labels or talk about demons, etc.  I won't 
even mention jyotish or some of the info in the Epilogue of Cult.  I've seen 
that Ann thinks Robin is very changed.  And that her friendship with LK is 
over.  LK who has been concerned about her.  

I'm sure that Robin is changed and in a good way.  I'm also sure that I want 
Robin to becompletely healed and happy.  Because he is so intelligent and 
intuitive, he knows it too.  But if he and his group want to continue to call 
me anti Robin, then so be it.  I know he has many supporters including me on 
FFL outside of his group.  Maybe someday he'll be both willing and able to see 
that. 

PS to Ravi:  sorry for taking it all out on you.

I second the question: Enabling what? In real life, Share's a friend of mine 
from Waking Down, and watching her glom onto this bizarre and malevolent 
anti-Robin polarity is both strange and disappointing. The person I'm most 
impressed with is Ann, who appears to have actually discovered grace, despite 
having done the Robin trip, 25 years ago.
