So Sam, if I understand you correctly, you only had one source for info about Faithy that you intended to publish. That source was Barney. Earlier on Barney gave you false info. But you decided to go ahead and publish Barney’s info on Faithy anyway, and say your information is not reliable.
Doesn’t anything strike you as being a teensy weensy bit odd and unethical about this modus operandi, Sam? Don’t you get it? You can’t do this kind of crap. You’re acting as a judge, jury, and executioner. You alone decide who you are going to persecute, then you publish stuff about them even if you know your only source is unreliable. You really aren’t concerned with the truth at all. You are a very dangerous individual.
You say: The point is that as far as my info about Faithy I went out of my way to double-check my info.
That’s a lie. You shouldn’t have published anything that depended solely on an unreliable source. The rule is, Sam, that normally you get Two, count’em, two credible sources before you publish things. Why don’t you try following THAT criteria for a while? No doubt your newsletter would be a lot shorter.
Your problem with the LB people is that in your eyes, they are guilty until proven innocent. I get the impression that you are going to leave that horrible stuff about them up on your website for a good time to come. According to you, they’re not ‘innocent enough’ yet. By whose standards? Sam the almighty, who has such a good track record of getting it right, and operating in an ethical and accountable manner?
Sam, you don’t have to declare to the world that LB is out of the Family, but you do need to stop saying that they are in. There is no evidence that they are. Withdraw the references to them while you figure it out.
What do you know about the Russians, Sam? Been there recently? Dealt with the authorities there? How do you know what they think about cults?
You see, Sam, you’re not even content that they have left the cult. To pass your litmus test of orthodoxy, they now need to go to the authorities there and out themselves. Who the hell are you, or any of us, to tell them what to do once they leave TF? Or how they should operate? Your arrogance is incredible.
You constantly set yourself up as a judge, Sam. An inquisitor. People have to jump through the hoops that you arbitrarily set up. People have to prove their innocence to you in ways that are acceptable to you. Otherwise they are guilt, and open game for any and all of your wild accusations.
I don’t think anyone perceives that you are on the LB side. “You’re only thinking of their welfare?” Gee, Sam, with friends like you, who needs enemies?
Sam, why don’t you post a list of things that LB has to do to prove that they are innocent in your eyes? Publish it so we can all see what it is going to take. We assume you have such a list, so let’s see it. Also, that will help other people leaving TF to see what they need to do to earn the approval of the wise and allknowing Sam.
I am disgusted by your behaviour, and I hope any SGAs who read this know that there are many FGAs who find it abhorrent.
