Wow. This explains so much. Thanks.

Dale Carnegie's "How To Win Friends and Influence People" was handed to me by my Twig Leader after attending several fellowship meetings. I was told many important sales principles needed to recruit others to pay $100 for the PFAL cassette tape seminar were in that book. Later, I served a year as a Military WOW Ambassador in Europe in the late '70s.

yes, STOP hitting your kids with kitchen utensils!

That's fair insight. Even without first hand knowledge of victim experiences/stories, The issue of sexual abuse in any social situation with such disparate power differential as twi (and many other religious groups, political, or economically obvious situations) makes it abundantly obvious it has been pervasive. Thanks for that comment.

I think VPs tactic was to silently incorporate some conspiracy theory garbage into his “advanced class materials” that has anti Semite and neo Nazi type thought lines, and leave it as material the “initiated” knew and had access to. As far as burn basically “Uncle Harry Day” was celebrated as an annual burn chaff day consisting of theological material, old vinyl which everyone regrets now and other artifacts of various things. So an annual purge culture with the different programs “what to bring” lists comprising other forced purges. Definitely has neo Nazi flavor to it.

Babylon Mystery Religion Thirteenth Tribe Harvard Classics (I have a set) Dale Carnegie - How To Win Friends and Influence People, The Art of Public Speaking, How to Stop Worrying and Start Living The Tracker - Tom Brown Jr Myth of the Six Million Luther the Reformer Foxs Book of Martyrs The Encyclopedia of Occult Sciences - from Adv Class list some cr@p on raising kids like training dogs. Many others on the “Corps Reading list”. I don’t have a copy of that any more wonder if any do.

While I didn't really take Mander's book that seriously, I did take "Babylon Mystery Religion" seriously at the time. I even bought "The Two Babylons", the book that Woodrow adapted to make his own book. Interesting how twi never promoted its sequel, "The Babylon Connection", which largely corrected errors of the previous book and repudiated the previous position. There were a few pages that weren't repudiated, but the book as a whole was. Since that was inconvenient for twi, it was never mentioned- even though it was true. In twi, rhetoric ABOUT the truth was and is always more important than the truth itself.

Yeah, that was a good one. I read it too. In my mind, it was biblically related. Did you ever read the Babylon Mystery Religion? or the Thirteenth Tribe? or anything like that?

I've been gone for years from here. I see this thread and I feel like I never left. I've so missed you guys and gals! Have a pretty sunset from last night on me.
