I hope John Morgan and Bansy are not distracted by this and please respond to the questions above.
"The Balance" takes place across the internet and media as a whole. The collective consciousness even, if you wish. At present, there are may be three or four sources "leaning out the boat" on one side raising issues ... on the other, several thousand pumping out everything from brainlessly repeated propaganda to outright deception, including many paid to or profiting from doing so.
There is little logic and no conclusion to faith based on beliefs. You either believe it or you don't. You are either a consumer or a producer of it.
For those that do believe, go back to morning class and make a difference within the BKWSU or AIVV. If someone just wants to be part of a virtual BKWSU, then BKs are working to provide that for you elsewhere. Take what you have learned here and go back in with it. They are happy as long as you buy their next book, donate to the retreat center, or whatever.
For those that are worried about your friends and family's involvement, or are trying to unpick the mental conditioning they have received unknowing, then there should be a place clearly dedicated for just that. If that place becomes imbalances by those promoting the propaganda view, then what is the point?
Ex- is not anti-. 'Ex' means "out of". If people want out of the BKWSU, or people want the BKWSU out of them, then there should be a place for people to help them find truth, and find themselves again.
I have never had a problem with your position, john, and am grateful for your input but where are you at? Are you headed back in or out?
