Barry just hates it when people laugh at his button-pushing attempts. That's why he snipped this from his quote of Ann's post:
He was posting this to imply that visionaries or those who have had spiritual or revelatory experiences were most likely diseased in some way. I wonder if he was frothing at the mouth and writhing while witnessing Rama levitate. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote : From: "awoelflebater@...

I like the point at the end that only Joan of Arc could of rallied the French. And it seems that Dostoevsky still could write acclimed novels which probably have enriched the lives of some people. So...regardless of the neurological event and regardless of how it is labeled, such events don't preclude that a person lives a beneficial life. I don't think there was ever any question of how "beneficial" someones life is or isn't based on whether they have visions based on epilepsy or not. I think what Bawee was doing here was his usual let's-see-if-I-can-push-any-buttons-here shtick. If so, what does it say about YOU that you got your buttons pushed yet again? :-) :-) :-)
