McKenna, Pinchbeck (who I never heard of until now), Ram Dass, Carlos Casteneda, Zeitgeist . . . all false/phony prophets/profits, IMO. Lots more of 'em out there . . . some of their stuff is okay but a lot of it is off-the-wall. Not all propaganda is untrue . . . that's how they suck U in, so when U quote some of these ppl as truth, U totally discredit Urself. Anyone who takes astrology, H.A.R.P., 2012, UFO's, aliens and a bunch of other stuff seriously is totally discredited, IMO.
Lol McKenna would never call himself a "prophet", never told people to take what he has to say as dogmatic truth, he said not to trust him, that he may be full of shit, and that the only thing he can put out there is the subjective experiences he has had in his life. For you to call the subjective reality of one individual as "false/phony" shows you seriously lack the understanding of their content/message to offer a serious critique. Jung took UFO's seriously, as well as aliens. Carl Sagan as well. Many intellectuals and renowned scientists (like Tesla) were involved in fringe "pseudoscience". Astrology can be a symbolic system of self analysis and a tool for the examination of the world and one's place in it without being a dogmatic tool of consciousness oppression. You flat out deny the validity of certain individuals/topics without considering that one can engage them on multiple levels providing unique truths (or falsities). You project your facile perception of reality onto objects that have truly limitless depth due to their positioning within the realm of human interpretation.
