Caligari, you remind me of my mom*...
within the [i:9ef2263b68]space of a sentence[/i:9ef2263b68] she would go from possibility to probability to certainty, provided she wanted to believe in that certainty.
yes, alternate states of consciousness. no, inducing them does not invariably lead to Satanic machinations.
if I start seeing Scientologist types handing out CuddleParty flyers on the street, if I start hearing stories about bad experiences, then I will have concern.
I can see the reasoning here... unconventional behavior: suspicous. alternate states of conscious: suspicous. involvment of founder with LEC: suspicious.
three suspictions add up to certainty. call in the Marines!

The issue is not that critiques of Cuddle Parties remind one of puritanical views or recall the values of parents. The issue is the psychological consequences of organized mass, indiscriminate, non-sexual intimacy.
Consider the intellectual and psychological consequences of being intimate with people one doesn't recognize as individuals with separate personalities, purposes and values and only as physical bodies. The assault the lack of distinguishing individuality has on maintaining and developing ones individual psyche with personal values and boundaries.
