First, if you knew how terrified I have always been of confronting authority figures(which, in my book you are), you would know how hard this is for me.
Second, I don't really think that dj is talking about Phillip Marx as a person in the above quotes. I think he is refering to the writings, which, given the fact that most psycho-babblers admittedly do not understand what PM is talking about, could legitimately be described as manic idiocy, for which, he could indeed need serious psychological help, which is all dj really seems to be saying. (sorry about run-on sentence)
That said, in a previous post, I stated that I was simply not going to "go there", as far as PM is concerned, but I've found that whether or not his writings are genius or manic idiocy, they are compelling, to say the least.
Please don't ban me from posting for giving a contrary opinion.CarolAnn
