In Response to the SECRET MOVIE Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear... I got an email from a guy saying that if I stuck to the rules in some book I could be rich, happy and fulfilled in all ways possible. Then I realised that this is the same twisted message that all religions pedal. It is, quite frankly insulting that the organisers of this "screening" would think for one minute that readers of Bridport Radio, or in fact, any sane member of society would believe for one second that this cheap, American piece of pulp-propaganda can successfully recruit others to their cause, and it makes my blood boil to think that there are people I know who could quite easily fall for this tripe. It is only the vulnerable, the weak, and the insecure that need "groups" like this to "realise" their intentions in life and feel comfortably in control of it, and these are EXACTLY the kind of people that this vile fiction is aimed at. The horrible, sordid part of this is that even if you're strong-minded and confident, you can still be convinced that you haven't achieved your full potential as a person when confronted by hard facts. They break you down with details and then build you back up using their own bricks and mortar, in their own shape. Please don't misread this message. I am not paranoid, I am not overly defensive, and I am not displaying my own insecurities through anger and I am not in need of focusing my life goals to further my sense of being and be more accepting of others! NOR AM I IN DENIAL! The Catholics, the Protestants, the Christian Scientists, the Methodists, the Quakers, the Evangelists (nutters!), The Taoists, The Buddists, The Hindus, The Muslims, The Druids and even the Jehova's Witnesses can get on with it for all I care, but this stuff needs to be spoken up against, and these 100 dollar fairy-tale philosophies disgust me to the core. Disclaimer: Of course none of my opinions expressed above are designed to silence any group or individual as I know full well that freedom of speech on-line is paramount. However, I feel so strongly on this, that the above tirade may well be seen as being an attempt to stop this group from "advertising" on BR by rallying support from other BR members, and if it is seen as that, then fair enough. CARLITO.
