[Gonzo]

Due to recent developments, I have decided to delete all references to Theun Mares and anyone associated with him. Please do not post anything in regard these people. If you do, I will delete it.

Seems a wise move, to me, G, under the circumstances.
No comment is needed, imo, as, the circumstances speak for themselves.

As a general, errant thought,.............if, someone were to concoct an elaborate fantasy, and then, try to sell it to people as factual,...........how, would the laws regarding fraud relate to this?
This, is a general question, which, relates to no-one specific,................at what point, does freedom of speech, become, deliberate deception, and would this be regarded as, a criminal act, particularly, if money was involved in some way?

We have the Bernie Madoff thing is process at the moment, which could be considered a gigantic fraud and for which he will probably spend some time in jail. As to spiritual frauds, they seem to be a dime a dozen and I think it would be difficult to impossible to prove any were frauds, however, on the flip side, they would probably be more successful suing for libel or defamation of character, which is what I am choosing to avoid.

Once again, due to recent developments, I'm going to add another name to the list, which if mentioned either directly or implied will be cause for the post to be deleted. The name is Della Van Hise, aka Quantum Shaman. Further, I will no longer tolerate any mention of her in chat. If you have business with her, email her at della@quantumshaman.com.
