Laura said:The problem with lack of discernment in associations is that it is a red flag regarding other issues that probably exist within the individual.
Clif's "association" with Jay Weidner consists of being interviewed on Weidner's web radio program once, a previous promotion on his website for a few months (gone now) of a Weidner interview and a few mentions of Weidner corroborating his view of Patrick Geryl's work and upcoming solar disturbances. That's really about it AFAIK. We certainly have no evidence of Clif engaging in a months-long voluminous email exchange with Weidner such as you yourself did nine years ago, Laura. From my reading of that correspondence, it seems that you only backed off after getting a warning from the C's that Weidner was up to no good.
Would this not be considered a lack of discernment on your part, to be engaged in such an intense discussion with a pathological individual over such a time span? Did this raise a red flag concerning your own discernment? Should Clif not be granted the opportunity to learn for himself, as you did (with some help from the C's), what kind of character he's associating with? Or is he to be held to a different standard?
Laura said:It might even be suggested that those who do not perceive these problems in relation to Clif himself are possibly under a similar influence.

What "group" are you referring to here? Clif is certainly part of no group; his major weakness IMHO is that he charts his path alone without the benefit of an informed network such as exists on this forum. And I am certainly not a Clif "groupie," although I do, like several others on this forum, follow his work. Are you really implying that all of us who read Clif's reports are being influenced to become psychopaths?
If so, I find that a rather absurd notion. :O
If you recall, when you asked the C's about Clif's work, they replied that he was "definitely" on to something. ;)
