By by you all.
The sound you hear is me vomiting in my beer.
Hope you grow up soon.
Bye bye. Maybe you'll decide to return when you've sobered up ... or maybe you'll be able to think straight then, anyway.![]()
Skepticism is a method of assessing claims. It is a form of critical inquiry which can be used positively: in business; by consumers; in the defence against being defrauded or scammed; as an intellectual exercise; and in increasing one's knowledge and awareness of reality in general.
The idea is to look beyond claims, beliefs and opinions, which are often accepted at face value, and look at whether the evidence actually supports such claims. This approach also makes skepticism a valuable thinking tool where opposing or contradictory claims are made for the same issue.
For an overview of skepticism see: What is Skepticism?

By all definitions Bowes is a skeptic, he appears to have no personal agenda, other than questioning Hansard and his closely knit now self promoting crew. Bowes asks all the right questions, and is willing to stand by them.
Sorry mahakala, Bowes still gets my vote.
Enjoy your pint!
Yes I understand your pint, I mean point.
My concern is this: a number of people have suggested to me that Bowe had a previous association with Hansard and until Bowe confirms or denies that - he has done neither and refuses to address the issue - I remain SCEPTICAL of his motives.
Mr. Bowe has now formally stated that he had no past association with Hansard. Given that he is telling the truth, I thank him for responding to that concern. I also notice that he recognizes the shamanic traditition of the Himalayas and Siberia and that there is often a tendency to associate that with the Bon religion. Although Bowe says there is no connection, that is in fact debateable. I would agree with him that there is little relationship between Bon as it is currently understood and the distant past of Asian shamanism. Whether there is a distant intersection, however, nobody can say, not even Bowe. If you study Shamanism you will see that there are several different traditions and as far as anyone can tell they all pre-date religion as we currently know it.
I thought you'd gone for good?
I'm really in another time and place and just peeking in at my old haunts. You don't mind really do you?
I did! At University. Very interesting too.If you study Shamanism
I wss kind of sorry when you said you weren't coming back. You're belligerent and intelligent. That's about 50% of the criteria for posting on here. If you'd just drop the homeopathy bit...![]()
"I did! At University. Very interesting too."
Care to say more about what you studied?
"If you'd just drop the homeopathy bit"
Alas, that I cannot promise. Although there is a lot of hocus pocus associated with homeopathy, and two hundred years of mechanistic science debunking it, it's continued existance is a finger pointing to avenues of scientific exploration we as a culture have only begun to explore.
My sympathies for your short sightedness.
Hello
I am new to this site- in fact I stumbled along the thread looking for some info on CH. Ive been a client/patient for some time. In that time I believe that he has an amazing power- I have seen amazing changes in my life and he has been supportive and caring. However I would add that at time he crosses that line in what he says, how he touches or looks at me even.I sometimes think is it me? is it pure transference? And then at other times, when I see how he is around me when others are around- I see a change in him and I think well perhaps it is not all me. Really I am shocked to learn he was an actor?? What happened to the story of the monk and the rainbow and being trained for years and years? I do feel though that sometimes there are things/people we cannot explain. CH has this ability to morph into different personalities and ways of being. Does that make him psychotic? Or does that make him other wordly? I dont know. I know that I have a very strong 6th sense about people and places....and I "felt" at Eden that there was a good energy that went bad.I always had a feeling stephanie had feelings for him, I always felt CH was not faithful to his family and always felt he was a man fighting with his own demons. There were times when he was cruel and said cruel things-these only made me see what i was saying to myself really....and he never treated me in a way that wasnt safe and caring. But I am concerned....I did always have the feeling I was being "groomed" and from the other website- rick ross.....I hear he has ways of working on someone...there have been times he has said things that made me think he had a relationship in mind.....I would really like to hear from anyone who would have anything to offer, any insight. Was I a fool? Did I waste my time and money I didnt have? Thankyou
