Sure, but you are in a position to go and ask and supply us with an impartial response from the organization.
So, what do you think Eugene's motivations re the Child Abuse stuff and this site's actually motivations are?
Again, please get down to specifics, if you mention academic, please state which work. I think it would be very interesting for us to do a critique of academic papers from a Brahmin point of view. Do you think The Knowledge that is discussed here is falsified?
Given the loaded definition of "pure" within BK circles, I would personally disagree that impartiality is "impossible". Indeed, one could aregue that only someone that has been "In" and "out" has both the involvement and the lack of self interest to present an objective view of the faith. A physician might refute Einsteinian Relativity but in order to propose another model he not only could but would be expected to make an impartial critique of both its strengths and weakness before moving on to an alternative proposal.
I think also with Gyan, what is becoming clear is that there are two things [or three]; "The Knowledge and the practise", and then those of the BKWSU. The BKWSU has assumed it is in control of The Knowledge and practise, the sole arbitrars of Truth, the Holy Roman Empire of spirituality. But what we see now with the PBKs and others is that the walls of Rome are crumbling, the secrets are out, schisms are appearing, that so-called ex-s and their interest in Gyan do not just fade away and die raises another problem for the BKWSU.
Is there any chance that you could supply us with more and uptodate Murlis please? Did we stop being God's children?
