I think somebody from ATS (maybe a higher-up) should make voluntary contact with DarkCyrus. If you are who you truly say you are and have these "abilities" and say that you wish to help in any way that you can, you should have no problem meeting with somebody from ATS and perhaps getting it on video tape.
I always live by the policy "Be neutral on a matter until you try to prove that it is true. If it's true, you will prove it so, and if it's false, you will prove without a shadow of a doubt that it is incorrect."
Well, maybe not that EXACT quote, but the general idea.

Mods, this is just inane.
You worry over one-liners taking up band-width, yet allow posts such as this almost daily to occur.
Something really needs to be done about these types of posts.

Red Dog, thank you for your kind words. I did not mention his condition to garner sympathy or support, but as a way of explaining my views on what I see as proselytizing. These claims of immense power have a way of attracting the easily influenced individuals, and often leads to harm.

When a poster goes beyond saying I .....counter such trash. I am not held by such constraints, and feel that a voice of reason in opposition is called for.

Oh, Win, I wanted to ask you if you don't mind disclosing openly, what do you mean by "shock therapy"?

I have a son who is terminally ill, with an incurable condition. His health will only go down over the coming years, as it has for the last 35. Eventually he will die of H2O starvation. He is six feet tall and weighs 97 lbs. ( No, it is not AIDS, I think even that would have more hope.) If there was a person who could teach me to help him in some way, I would jump at the chance.
But, those of you who try to speak of your power, and I include here ALL the mystics of EVERY religion, and yet do nothing with it, are either charlatans or worse. You have nothing to prove, so you have either divorced yourselves from the human race and no longer count man as your brother, or you lack the ability you claim.
I for one refuse to be 'recruited' into some quasi-intellectual New Age rehashing of the same old song and dance that has went on since the dawn of man. Somewhere back in the dim reaches of time, a lazy but ambitious caveman figured out that he could have power over his fellows by pretending to know more than they did and spinning interesting tales. The mumbo-jumbo has never ceased, though as here, it always finds new clothing to cover it's nakedness.
I pity those who follow these paths. To accept the existence of a Supreme Creator is one thing, and is an individual's choice. I too have a belief in our Prime Creator Force, but to reduce that Creator's role to the point of personal power is the first sign of a witch doctor 'come on'.
I post this so that all who read these clouded pages will have the choice of how much they allow themselves to be taken in by this pathetic so called enlightenment. There are young minds, developing minds, that could be derailed into such cult-like systems and harmed in the process. It was just such B.S. that led to Heaven's Gate and the Jim Jones cult. Such is now leading men and women to kill themselves and the innocent as well with 'Bombs For Allah'.
When critical thinking is most needed is when someone tells you they have answers, but lack the will/humanity to use these wonderful powers. Here's an idea, show your power now. Stop me from ever again speaking against your deceitful practices on these pages. That should do the job of convincing potential followers, and yet would protect your sacred power from getting out beyond your private control.
I'm so scared.
