I didn't notice and I might've overreacted just a little bit. Regarding disparaging others online, I tend to make a very slight exception for Mitch because like so many of Prem's apologists, he once said "the ashrams were no more onerous than little league or summer camp," and "some people chose celibacy as part of their path towards enlightenment." He said that long after "Guru Maharaji" gave "agya" that anyone in a position to do so should move into the ashram. Anyone familiar with the history - and honest about it - knows that that level of order or command from the perfect master, especially to a true believer, removed the condition of unfettered free will, i.e., choice. What Mitch said is so absurd it still makes me laugh.

(That's why this is about the tenth time I've posted those quotes and I'm sure it won't be the last.  )

Besides, not that I hold a grudge, but he tried to disparage (or humiliate or patronize?) me online on FirstClass (a private messaging system used by premies) in a group message.

Bob!
Bob!
Bob! 

was the salutation. 

You know, in my old age, I'm kinda taking a liking to that guy.
