But it's clear to me that even among the "professional NFPers," the Kool-Aid drinking isn't typical.
Let me admit once again that I deliberately chose Popcak as an extreme example, which may not be fair. But personally I find Christopher West to be much more objectionable on the whole, and just as popular on the NFP lecture circuit. Unlike Popcak, he is really serious about his "Naked without Shame" business.
At least he was a couple years back, the last time I checked. Since then I've done my best to put out of my mind all thoughts of neo-Catholic craziness, and focus more on my own interior life which has been gravely lacking. Once I just gave up on the whole enterprise, I could stop thinking about whatever was the latest nonsense, and focus on the reality of the Catholic saints of all time.
Dear Maximilian,
"Let me admit once again that I deliberately chose Popcak as an extreme example, which may not be fair."
Well, without betraying promises of confidence to demonstrate my assertion, I'll say that I believe Mr. Popcak regretted even the rather tepid language he originally used, that was quoted in the first threads on this topic.
"Christopher West"
I am, I suppose, blessedly unaware of this person. I intend to remain so blest.
