Beliefs Aren't Black & White (But Exist In A Grey Area)

Here's a quote - not an article - making a true claim:

The rule of thumb with bizarre Christian right beliefs, such as the belief that Syria’s conflict is a sign of the end times, is that by the time it percolates up to a Google search or a website like the Blaze, it’s been flying around in lower-profile venues such as Internet forums, Facebook posts, books sold in Christian bookstores, in-person meetings in churches, sermons and presentations, and email forwards for a long time now. The fact that these points of view are concealed from prying liberal eyes doesn’t mean that they don’t have a huge impact on right-wing communities—and that includes Republican politicians.

All true, but it's still a lie - a lie of omission. They leave something out. Here's the flip side, written by me:

The rule of thumb with bizarre NewAge left beliefs, such as the belief vaccines cause autism, is that by the time it percolates up to a Google search or a website like the Huffington Post, it’s been flying around in lower-profile venues such as Internet forums, Facebook posts, books sold in NewAge bookstores, in-person meetings in seminars, retreats and presentations, and email forwards for a long time now. The fact that these points of view are concealed from prying conservative eyes doesn’t mean that they don’t have a huge impact on leftt-wing communities—and that includes Democrat politicians.

Oh, man, Westerners are such a cultish crack-up - so many joiners and followers - but we're all paying for the privilege:

Here in New York, the cost of even a single yoga class has skyrocketed. I suppose mental health is priceless, but it is hard to justify paying $30 a class when I already have two yoga mats, my very own floor (which came with my apartment), and a general idea of what I need to do. But the yoga industry continues to attract new devotees. According to a 2012 Yoga in America study produced by Yoga Journal, more than 20 million Americans practice yoga, an increase of 29 percent since 2008. Furthermore, yogis shell out $10.3 billion a year on yoga classes and products, including equipment, clothing, and vacations. Colorado-based Gaiam, Inc., a large eco-conscious lifestyle media company that sells yoga clothes, mats and DVDs, also carries niche items like herbal towelettes, toeless yoga socks, and yoga flip flops on its website. 

Rarely do I come across anything spiritual that is free.

Yeah, Lady, least of all yourself:

Or those of us bearing NewAge's full weight,...
