This is a perfect example of why they should have a better screening process, to keep anti-social people from working for the TMO.
This kind of behavior has probably been present since the guy was a small child. I mean, if a guy can't even participate in an online discussion group without blowing up, you can imagine what his life is like in real life! It must have been chaos just living with this guy! If he's like this now, after being cured, imagine what he was like twenty years ago when he was supposed to be a spiritual teacher. Most of the misfits posting here probably had severe social problems long before they started TM - it was just hidden from view. People don't just suddenly start expressing violent tendencies. Or, exhibit extreme anger at their government overnight - it's a chronic, pernicious condition over time. Usually people consult a cult-exit counselor or get some therapy from a psychiatrist. Apparently none of the misfits on FFL have done this and even refuse to admit they have any problems. The first step on any 12-step program is to admit you have a serious social or mental problem. Sometimes people have to be put on medication. Sometimes they have to be committed before they cause harm to others or to themselves. > On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 7:49 AM, feste37 <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote: > > > You have always come across on this forum, in my view, as a foul-mouthed > thug and a bully with severe anger issues, and also an endless whiner about > the movement, how they FORCED you to do this and that, as if you had no > choice in the matter. > > > ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : > > > Gunna have to give the win to Steve here....I think I took it to be an > elbow in the ribs as he intended...locker room jive. > > And maybe mostly too my "Stop eating.
