The Master Jesus …
The Master Jesus would call you a viper, and a hypocryte, and a law keeper and say that you will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven and so shall I say it to you!
You need to be …
You need to be concerned about casting evil stones at others when you yourself had committed many crimes where you have intentionally hurt others. How do know this? Because I can see it clearly. You think that you hide your sins and no-one sees them, but I tell you the truth, they are seen very clearly and you are the one who must make yourself clean, because you are not clean.
A misfortune is not …
A misfortune is not a crime or a up, it is a misfortune!
The families are not in hell. If they were, they would be tormented eternally. They are suffering from loss and have to grieve through it, understand the misfortune, not blame and heal from the misfortune.
You on the other hand, are one who judges others wrongly. In your case, you will be judged by your own actions and receive your just reward.
His good teachings …
His good teachings are not in the past that you admit too are still his same teachings today.
If you do the crime maybe you should do the time, however, the definition of a crime is when you intentionally harm someone and this is not the case. You are wrong and there is no crime. Only unintelligent beings would call the misfortune a crime. He did not up or up bad, things happen and once again, there was no ill intent so there can be no crime.
Please give us your …
Please give us your definition of “right”. This man is responsible for 3 people losing their lives! READ THAT AGAIN, THIS MAN IS RESPONSIBLE FOR 3 PEOPLE LOSING THEIR LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quit crying for this guy, I mean, I know he has had some good teachings in the past, but still, if you do the crime you gotta do the time. He up, and he up BAD. He deserves every last day he spends in jail and/or prison. The families of his victims will never get out of their hell.
Yeah but you cannot …
Yeah but you cannot blame them for acting that way.
With all honor, …
With all honor, love, respect and sorrow for families and the ones who went beyond this horrible world, James Ray is one of my greatest personal heroes. His inspirations and teachings, along with other Master Teachers of this planet changed my life in the most wonderful of ways. I am hurt and angry, not at James, but by ignorant people and cruel police and authorities treating him like a piece of in jail and with the threat of prison. I know a man’s spirit and I know this is not right!.
Yeah but he was a …
Yeah but he was a DAM GOOD telemarketer.
I got a call from him one time. He was trying to sell me a bridge in Brooklyn.
I dam near gave him my credit card # too.
LOL
Those fools deserved to die for being stupid enough to listen to this schmuck. Hale Bopp types. ROTFLMFAO
(Sigh) There is no …
(Sigh) There is no reliable scientific evidence that it works BECAUSE IT IS SUBJECTIVE!!!!! IT COMES FROM A PERSON’S THOUGHTS. FEELINGS AND ACTIONS WHICH CANNOT BE PROVEN!!!!!!
AND — EVERYBODY IS DIFFERENT!! DIFFERENT PEOPLE, DIFFERENT RESULTS!! HOLY COW WILL THESE SKEPTICS STOP BEING CHILDISH!!!!
ha the internet… …
ha the internet…where people rarely present credit for what they say.
“testimonials are …
“testimonials are not science.” Ray’s former profession was as a, “telemarketer.”
James Ray has done …
James Ray has done the self help a shameful dis service, I watched many of his interviews long b4 this happened & everytime I came away feeling he was only in it 4 the money. He comes across 2 the independent thinker as egotistical, greedy & selfserving. I do believe LOA works & worked 4 him, this is his result, he has brought this on himself at the cost of 3 people dead & many others injured. He owed it 2 his followers 2 b more responsible, they trusted him & it cost 3 people their lives
What needs to die …
What needs to die in James Ray?
Could be his needy ego?
The guy’s a prat… …
The guy’s a prat….what happened at Sedona is the proof.
How is he going to rationalize that and line it up with the LOA.?
That sweat lodge was criminal on so many levels……..I know that from experience .
Only a greedy fool would put 64 people in that plastic death trap and charge them $9,000………to charge for it is offensive to Native Americans anyway.
when the nay sayers …
when the nay sayers have their 5 pillars intact and all firing at the same time, there’s no way anyone can argue James Ray’s point. Case studies are just that, but when science is starting to go hand and hand with harmony the more you dive into it the average person will say this works and i will continue.
lol wtf
lol wtf
U.S. Bill of Rights …
U.S. Bill of Rights 1st Amendment:
the Government for a redress of grievances.
This doesnt mean denying speech you like, or that you accept or support. This means accepting all speech, whether you like it or not. Freedom of speech is for everyone. It was the desire of men smarter than those in power today to bestow upon us, these inalienable rights. You see Beast boy you cave men just a bunch of evil deceivers you dont even follow your own bullshit……..

Obama Bitch
laryon: You tickle …
laryon: You tickle me with your complete stupidity & irrational thought. Wow…public education has you up. Every Historian & scholar that studies Egyptian hieroglyphics & artifacts agrees….Egyptians were clearly white. Every facet of their culture systematically fits perfect into all civilizations that border the mediteranean sea.
Actually I know its more than public education that causes your low IQ – its your sloped head eggplant brain. History proves, the cant learn.
Babylon does not …
Babylon does not Pre date Egypt wrong wrong…….
If so why are Egypt’s pyramid’s still standing.
Because this Science come from Egypt located where ?Africa……….Black man is God
that guys obviously …
that guys obviously doesn’t understand the law of attractioon ahhaha i love that he tries to argue it!!!
go james ray! you kicked ass!
My take on this is …
My take on this is the following. You have to think about what it is that you want – it will make people happier. Because they are positive since they focus on that.
However, the important part is that thinking about what you want is not the only thing. You also have to take the actions to get there. That is why “The Secret” alone does NOT work.
However of course, that’s the hard part about it, and it would help sales to share that part of the message to. Still, the LOA is incredibly powerful.
If we all lived our …
If we all lived our lives the way The Secret teaches us, the world as a whole would be a remarkable, healthy and friendly place to be. But unfortunately, until we educate the negative people and encourage others to help and inspire others to greatness it remains an uphill task but one that is not unachievable.
Keep smiling when others are frowning.
to put it most …
to put it most basically…I look at these two individuals debating “The Secret” and I think the person I would most like to imitate is NOT the hideous negative nay-sayer…
