Tiggerwil, you can expect more of the same. rrmoderator, I have a question for you: on various posts on the website Sterling is accused of being a convicted felon. Is this a fact? I mentioned this to a friend of mine who is still involved with the organization and he doesn't believe me. Do you have any links to primary sources that can substantiate the allegation? If you do I would b

Tigerwil: A lot of prep goes into the overnight. Its probably THE most important event that takes place during the point team.

Tiggerwil: I wouldn't loose too much sleep over your boyfriend's participation in the men's weekend or the point team. The Point Team will not encourage him to behave in ways which would undermine your relationship. Your boyfriend may attempt to enroll all the men in his life into the weekend, and he may begin to talk about weekend ad nauseum, but this isn't the end of th

Hi sparky. I regretfully must confess that I fully participated in every ritual I was asked to perform. At the very end of the weekend, when I was delirious with sleep deprivation, I was told to strip naked, cover myself with war paint, beat drums, and dance about like some wild heathen...I complied. As far as camp fires are concerned, these usually take place during the mens circles, whic

Hello Hattah. I am a "graduate" of the sterling men's weekend, and I can tell you with absolute certainty that the sons of Maine are a subsidiary group to the sterling institute of relationships. While the sons of maine may be in sympathy with other LGATs such as Landmark Education, they are basically owned and operated by the sterling institute of relationships. Understanding w

For the record Corboy, I am not "trying to get boosted off of RR.com so that can get promoted within organization." And saying that I "sound just like the other types who show up here," is neither fair nor accurate. I posted this thread because I don't think Landmark deserves much of the criticism it receives. No organization is perfect. We could pick apart any rel

Look guys, I'm not saying that landmark is a wonderful institution. Their hard sell is certainly disgusting, and much of what they teach is total bullsh!t. That being said, virtually ALL spiritual, religious, and self help institutions are cultic and nonsensical. Landmark is no more odious or destructive than any of the major world religions. All of the criticisms and attacks leveled aga
Forum: Large Group Awareness Training, "Human Potential"

Landmark Education has come under some very intense public criticism. I went through both The Landmark Forum and The Advanced Course. While much of the criticism leveled against Landmark is indeed well founded, I think that some of it goes WAY too far. In essence, I don’t think that its fair to throw Landmark into the same category as scientology and other destructive cults, for reasons that I
