The Secret, ….Cult
Norman Vincent Peale on steroids, The Secret is the next “IN” thing on the Oprah circuit. There is really no difference between The Secret and Christian Prosperity Churches like Joel Osteen’s. They take old school pop psychology and dress it up as cutting edge “get rich quick” techniques.
Oh goody, let’s start some “Secret Self Help Groups” and we will all get rich!!! Somebody link this video quickly to Iran and tell them they can avoid the Bush bombing that is already planned, by just thinking positively. Those poor 600,000 dead Iraqis just wished death and destruction on themselves. I wonder how those dead babies did that to themselves?
People wake up, this is the same ole cult dynamic in play. Here is the formula that Scientology, EST, The Forum, Landmark Education and countless others have employed for years. Take someone down on their luck or even worse and promise them the moon. Show them the ones that have already obtained riches using their “tried and true” methods and brainwash them into a new positive way of thinking. Snake Oil salesman have employed similar techniches for years, its called lying.
Ridicule the ones that “don’t get it” and and praise the ones that do. Presto, you have group dynamics in play. Forget hard work and the discipline of your old faith, they obviously were wrong given your current circumstances. Come on, remember 10% of the wealthy people control 90% of the wealth….. THEY KNOW THE SECRET!!! But guess what? You never will, because the secret is YOU ARE GULLIBLE.
Those 10% didn’t achieve wealth through positive thinking and allowing the universe to reward their “mind attraction” skills. They got it by suckering you into needless wars and charging you interest on money they create out of thin air. They got it by killing innocent babies and threatening good men’s families. They got it by selling their souls and embracing money as their god. They have untold wealth while true patriots sit in prison because they were whistleblowers and the powers that be are punishing them. People, don’t drink the koolaid.
