A Secular Franciscan looks at the world...
with a more jaundiced eye than ever...

Well, it's not a Catholic group, anyway...

Plan to sell Adams Street mansion to Christian 'mystics' causes a stir

I have a few problems with Rick Ross because of his knee-jerk reaction to groups that leads him to label pretty much anything a cult, but I'd still wonder about a person who gave up his license to practice as a psychologist after his 'mystical' group grew. I wonder what his income is.

(I'd have to think that a group of mystics would be pretty quiet, being in meditation all the time and all. Calling themselves a group of mystics may be a little presumptuous. The goal is to reach union with God which makes one a mystic, not calling yourself a mystic during your search...)
