QuoteBrad69 A question I have about Landmark’s actions: Are they ready to face the scrutiny they could be subjected to now that this story has reached the major networks? They have opened a can of worms that could really expose in a big way what they have been trying to hide by having the France 3 documentary removed from the Internet. Landmark is screwed.

Someone else coined the phrase "follow the money" when it comes to Royal Way, not me. And if Royal Way's finances and records are in "good order", then they would simply adhere to the most basic ethical standards of transparency and "Standards of Responsible Stewardship", and make them available on request, and do so promptly and courteously.

It seems to me that this is one of the few places on the internet which isn't just about "Believers". It seems to me to be more about Critical Thinking, and analysis, and telling the truth. Its about Skepticism of all claims being made, and looking at the evidence. For instance, there are almost 500 comments about Dr. Phil here, and granted many of them are just being profane

Anyone read the new press release from Landmark? Its very well written propaganda, it would be very effective for those not familiar with the case. They must have hired some fancy PR firm to re-write that one. But the problem is this. If Landmark just wanted to stop the video, they could have just asked YouTube, Google, etc, to take down the video, and that would have been the end of it.
