“As a nearby resident, there are several native Americans who hold ceremony in this area, including sweat lodges, drum circles, and so forth. Many invite whoever feels called to join in, regardless of genealogical heritage.

Nonetheless, it is amazing to me to observe the factors that led to this incident. People paying exorbitant amounts to be in retreat with one of the featured persons in the movie, The Secret. Packing 64 people into the lodge--apparently without any consideration of safety issues. With up to $9000 per person, one would think James Ray could have afforded to consider the physical safety of his guests. While I don't consider it wrong for non-natives to participate in Native American traditions, such choices should be made through honor and respect. Indeed, cultivating honor and respect is an important aspect of spirituality that is unfortunately often forgotten in the 'New Age.'”

“Palin-Umbridge in 2012. That WOULD be the ticket! They do indeed have a LOT in common!”

“Okay Sarah,

Regardless whether you were falsely accused before, Harry Potter was indeed published WHILE you were mayor of Wasilla, not AFTER as you claim in this interview. The first book was published in the UK in June 1997 and came to the US in Sept 1998. You were mayor of Wasilla from 1996 to 2002. You don't exactly prove yourself on this one!”
