... It seems to me that there could be a book about this, perhaps several. There could be a PBS-TV documentary and a "60 Minutes" segment. Why not a documentary film? Magazine articles in Harpers, Atlantic Monthly, Vanity Fair.

Yeh, a TV documentary would be interesting. However, it might be difficult to get enough film footage together to do a really good story... the organization and Sid are just too slippery.
I'm not so sure about a book, though. There is no sensational murder story as in the "Monkey on a Stick" book.
A move based on a true story would be a good way to go, in my opinion... Say, a devotee whose life got wrecked by his/her involvement with the cult.
:wink:

Look at the first line of the lecture where JG quotes Jesus as saying "As ye sow, so shall ye reap." I heard him make this reference many times in many lectures.
I am pretty sure that Christ never said this.
In Galatians (6:7) St. Paul wrote "...for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap."
I'm no biblical scholar, nor I am a guru. Yet if I was giving a lecture and quoting Jesus, I think I would at least try to be accurate.

I checked out one the the SoI satelite sites.
Lots of quotes and old video clips.
ALL those videos were made in the 1980's.
Seems like NOTHING is new
(except hundred's of more policy pages)-
No new writing or appearances-
ALL NOTHING!
which does beg the question cultreporter asked,
"Is Chris Butler even alive?"
or is he some
Weekend at Bernie's or Cyrogenic thing?
quotesman, I'll think about the movie titles! :twisted: :lol:

In fact not even one of fearless leaders followers is a Biblical scholar. Especially Jivan is NOT a biblical scholar. I think there is another follower in the P.I. they promote as a Biblical scholar too. Don't know who that is, but have heard it through the grapevine. I think he is in charge in the Phillipines. No, they are not Biblical scholars anymore than they are Vedic scholars. They just use bits and pieces here and there to promote their own ideas. This is not unlike many Christian sects. None of FL followers have done an in depth study of the Bible, its origins or its teachings etc anymore than they have studied the Veda. They are just as sentimental about their version of Jesus as many Christians are. But the difference is they are hypocrites by saying one should not be a sentimentalist when it comes to religion.
