Oh God, my mother has it. I hate evangelical crap, even without the trappings of religion. I can understand why it advocates positive thinking, but it seems too evangelical for me.

I've seen bits of it, trust me. I said it was evangelical, not actually religious. But I hate evangelical stuff, which is why I hate infomercials and TV shopping ads....

I didn't watch the video because frankly, 90 minutes is too long. But, if it is about, "visualizing something, then you'll get it", its basically a load of bull. It is impossible for a wish to change the world around you. If you do have a wish, and it comes true, it was a coincidence, not a causal reaction.

This is not to say that this type of thinking will not bolster your attitude and perhaps make you more likely to act in a way that will help you achieve your wish, but to think that there is any type of link at all directly between the two is absurd.

Try typing in these peoples names in on google, especially "Bob Proctor", the "philosopher", he's one of those "life coaches". He is not a philosopher! He is one of those people trying to make money. Scams people, scams! Also look up "law of attraction", and you'll be directed to a bunch of sites trying to sell you stuff.

Sorry, but I had to stop watching after the gay comedian who started to think positively had a total life change. All of a sudden the people who were harrasing him were "transferred to other offices, quit, or stopped giving him a hard time". What a load of BULL! No amount of positive thinking will get the guy who you dislike at work transferred!! !! And to top it all off, he suddenly became funny! With everybody laughing at his jokes! I'm sorry, but no amount of positive thinking will make you funnier, or more talented, just ask the contestants on American Idol.

Try wishing to find a billion dollars in your backyard, and let me know it you ever find it.

Besides, haven't you seen Bruce Almighty?? Don't you know what happens when everyones wish comes true! :lol:
