RE: John of God: Baby Farmer Extraordinaire
So I shared an article from the New York Times about his arrest on my FB on 19 December, and just went to get it for you - and it says the article is no longer available on NYT. ...
Anyway, it didn't mention child labor or trafficking, but it did mention sexual abuse.
Here was my original comment:
"Honestly? Not surprised. He smelled of scam artist.
Did you ever hear Wayne Dyer talk about his healing experience? He said JofG healed his cancer. He "took special herbs" and reported that the next day he was all awash with love and his kids said his pupils were like saucers. Um, yeah Wayne, you did drugs. You were high, dude. He felt better, but he had stopped his conventional cancer treatments (which we know can make you feel like shit, so of course he felt better). Then he died in a few years. Ya know, because he had cancer (though none of the reports said he died of cancer that I saw, he got a diagnosis he was very public about and then died in a few years. He wasn't hit by a bus).
So yeah, color me unsurprised that such a scam artist would also be an abuser of this sort."
