Default Re: Blossom Goodchild Apologizes on Youtube

Orion, I guess there wouldn't be much point in talking to her in Lyran (or whatever). How many people posting here are using their native tongue rather than English?

Personally I think she and all the other GFL followers have been duped by a power that isn't what it claims to be. I don't think she deliberately set this up but hey, I don't know her.

The reason so many people are so angry is that they believed her and her message- nobody likes making a fool out of themselves. Imagine the reaction if the Pope came out and stated that Catholicism was based on a huge lie and was constructed purely to control people. We has an example of this when that Dutch(?) newspaper printed a cartoon depicting Mohammed (though there's another level to that) because it was against Muslim beliefs to depict him in any way.

Same difference, except this GFL stuff is a "New Age" religion, because it requires belief without any proof. The people who believed her gave their power away to her, just like the people who believe in Catholicism, Islam, Judaism etc give their power away to their spiritual leaders. Blossom, Adama and the others (assuming they actually are in contact with other beings) give their power away because they are required to have faith in them, to take them at their word without any proof.

Don't believe ANYTHING. If you experience something directly, question that too. Don't assume that because they're not physical that they can be trusted, because this whole sorry episode proves that this isn't the case.

Whatever your own level of involvement in this was, the only thing to do is learn from the experience and move on in whatever direction feels right. If you do that then the negative intent of this (if there was negative intent) can be turned into a positive outcome.

Just my 02p.

Blessings to all
