Jonathan,

First, money and fundraising is a huge, huge issue among ex-premies.  A long time ago I think many of us came to the conclusion that we'd never get into fundraising on the forum for anyone or for any purpose.  Aside from the occasional request for donations for the upkeep of EPO, it's just not done here.  It's just too much to ask of any ex-premie, because so much money and more has already been given to Prem Rawat and his organizations by us.  Besides, that, who's going to chose the most worthy victim of that cult?  MacGregor isn't the only and first person to put himself on the line.  So I think you probably hit quite a few nerves about that. 

Second, ex-premie can be very fragile people. Nobody needs to become a hero and I don't think it's my place or yours to enourage it.  This is not the same as the civil rights movement or a former employee who blows the whistle on an industry.  It's just not the same thing.

I thought that would be obvious, and maybe someone else can explain it better than I have, I'm sure there are many others here are willing to disagree with me.
