 Study Finds Long-Term Pot Smokers Have More Social, Financial Problems
 People who smoke pot regularly over many years, end up in a lower social class 
than their parents, with lower-paying, less-skilled jobs. That's according to 
research published Wednesday based on a study of children in New Zealand, who 
were tracked from birth to age 38. The study participants who regularly use 
cannabis also reported more problems with debt and cash flow than those in the 
study who were dependent on alcohol. Forum discusses the findings with the UC 
Davis professor who authored the study.

[FairfieldLife] Re: TM, Quietism, & the Quakers

[dhamiltony...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

Text from Northern Europe I'd like to track down an essay that was written from 
jail in Bern by Inspirationists who were at the risk of a conviction for heresy 
and a death sentence. The essay was a crafted explanation of their separatist 
spirituality, written judiciously in defense so as to get themselves out of 
jail without tripping wires. They got out of jail that time.
 
 

 The inquisitors or magistrates in these circumstances went after what people 
'believed' by extracting from them statements of their creeds. Not with an 
interest in context of people's experience but what did they 'believe', point 
by point. There being a Church ideological disinterest in people's experience, 
unless of course the 'experience' could convict the separatist. If once moved 
on to a religionist's turf of comparing 'creeds', “..what exactly do you 
believe?”, then it is all over for spirituality and spiritual people.

 “Meditators once came to Fairfield and we are here for world peace and with no

fear, deceit and judgment.  If that had been the movement’s continued

requirements, not an option but required, to just lie, it ended.   The irony is 
that in the stand of people’s own integrity people have left.”

 This business shift over to Old Testament-like judgements about people and 
vengeful retributions in separating off old TM teachers by a kind of summary 
business personality in the middle of TM has become something of a huge loss of 
resource, both human and financial, that could have been handled differently. 
  
 By a Corporate coldness and a mercantile administration of a bunch of wealthy 
people there was not much of a sustained attempt at visiting around with people 
of the old movement after Maharishi died by 2008. In effect they turned a lot 
of people out by trying to use the org to discipline people to their own minds. 
 They quite effectively lost a lot of capital and love.  The metrics are not 
good when you look at them.

some wealthy fanatical followers, ..as Feste here reduces how they 'frame' it.
