dear Dan, thank you so much for what you say to Richard here. I agree with you. I read all of Richard's post and even though they're not all "gems" the ones that are gems make all the reading worthwhile. Plus he's often the target of "mob mentality" which imho is even worse than cult mentality. You too, thank you for keeping on...Share

And as I appreciate it, at the same time I see the tragedy of offering value, logic and insight to a this person, who is absent core human values. You know, like decency, honor, morality, comprehension, self-respect, esteem for others... Well, the list goes on. Keep on keeping on, Dan ________________________________ From: danfriedman2002 <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, September 28, 2014 9:31 PM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Jerry email to John sent on Sunday ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <awoelflebater@...> wrote : ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote : whose privacy is being invaded? Given the nature and tone of the letter I certainly can't see why it would have to be confidential in any way. I thought he stated his reasons for finding George's "conversation" with MMY suspect and perhaps superfluous and it all came across as simply his viewpoint on the thing. Why Hagelin would feel he needs to keep this letter private and exclusive smacks of the hierarchical BS that seems to abound in the Movement - something I can't abide. Hagelin's letter was fine, there were no trade secrets, no mysteries revealed, nothing shocking to report. I respect his views given his experience of having been around MMY and I don't think his letter was unreasonable or extreme in any way. I don't think it needs to be private because it simply gives the reader a clear idea of where Hagelin stands on this subject (no surprises there). Dear Ann, If a person wishes to keep their private letters private. That is their right. It is not up to someone else to decide whether the content deserves privacy. Do you see that?
