Negativity & Skepticism

So the responses are rolling in on this, and not to my surprise, there are skeptics out there. Please let me assure you of the following right now:
  1. I have not completely lost it
  2. I have not joined a cult
  3. I am not some born-again Christian (though I do have to admit, it has helped me find my faith again - but religion is not what this is about)
Many people are in total shock (the most common response yet :-)) that I would air my dirty laundry like this, but I saw this as necessary - to share my story and be totally sincere about what I struggled with, as it might strike a chord with some of you, and maybe help get you over the hump of skepticism.

I think my biggest concern right now is that my passion for this is coming across as cultish talk. I'd like to think that it's really just a matter of the (written) form of communication that I've chosen to deliver this. I may be coming across to strong in my passion for this, and scaring people away. Again, those who are eternally skeptical will probably never get it no matter what I say. These are the ones that need this program the most.

I really believe that this program could help change the world (again, very grandiose, but it's just how I feel - sorry!), so I'm going to do whatever I can to try to perpetuate something good in this world, and fight the good fight.

Good luck to you and your's.

John
