From: "TurquoiseBee turquoiseb@... [FairfieldLife]" <FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com> Especially the religious fanatics and cultists on Fairfield Life. Some less brainwashed person says something they don't like because it causes them to realize that their beliefs or their spiritual teacher are kinda silly, and rather than react to the criticisms themselves, they attack the critics personally and try to smear them. Fortunately, all but a couple of these religious fanatics bailed from FFL recently. This is just a reminder to the 2 or 3 who are left that nobody is buying your tactics.
