Landmark does not want addicts - they are not "people that are well". Of course a lot of people that do landmark use drugs and alcohol but they say that you should abstain from them during the forum. Why? Because the mind control will be less effective if you are under influence.
I'm thinking Landmark must be lowering its 'standards', if thats even possible...
I know of a few lekkies who are alcoholics, practicing but functioning alcoholics. One is also a drug addict, again, functional. One person who is alcoholic only, reviewed their forum and was asked not to drink during the forum and I suspect, for a period of time after their 'reviewed' forum. One person is addicted to both alcohol and drugs, reviewed their forum and has been on 30 days of 'clarity' since. I've never heard of this before, I know LM claims it doesn't want addicts or the mentally ill, but I'm also thinking LM is finally getting sloppier in its approach, if that is possible, and is allowing addicts into forums..but attempting to salvage the indoctrination process by insisting, or ordering that those reviewing a forum abstain from their addictions during and after the forum, so the programming can take full effect.
Whatever the case, LM pretty much exposes its abysmal lack of integrity, again. They claim not to accept candidates with problems, then they put a candidate with big issues, on 'clarity'? LM stupidity is as endless as their ability to reduce living human beings into puppets.
Obviously, LM isn't concerned about addiction, but is also clueless as to how it affects the mind. The people I know who are addicted may actually have their only saving grace in their addictions as long as they are under the spell of Landmark. An addict or alcoholic cannot be fully controlled as long as they are practicing, in fact, a practicing addict does not typically allow for any other convictions to rule in their minds except for their very own. Obviously, they can be manipulated and conned but they can't be fully indoctrinated...to them I say, 'drink up'!
