Do you really expect me to believe your own basic intelligence didn't tell you this in the first place? (!)
>Quintal I don't like your condescending attitude toward me.
Likewise. Maybe it has something to do with the tone of your introductory post to this thread? I am none too taken myself by, what seems to me, your ebullient aggression toward myself and the work of Heather Ashton.
> So forgive me if I don't recall the exact name of the forum, but it was the previous iteration of Benzo Island. They clean the boards periodically to get rid of anyone who might suggest that they take any other drug, such as an aspirin or I have seen people chastised for taking magnesium.
Benzo Island still exists today. The activity of these groups has nothing to do with myself nor the work of Heather Ashton, other than they may try to misquote her for their own purposes. I don't see why you bring it up here.
>To me this is not any "religious" statement whatsoever.
Earlier you posted this:
>"When you join the forum, you must agree and I quote "benzodiazepines were created in the depths of hell by the very devil himself, and distributed freely here on earth by his demons". Hope that answers some questions about the origins of benzo.uk or whatever. I refuse to ever go back there, as it scared the daylights out of me with the extreme notions that *any* and all psych. meds are horrendous and people got thrown off the forum for taking a vitamin (not kidding)."
Which to me, sounds as though you are insinuating some sort of religious cult or fundamentalism, which also seems to be in line with the sentiments of other posters with their veiled accusations of scientology and cultism. You have not identified the author of those words with any certainty. If he (whoever he is, and if it is a 'he') really is being sarcastic it seems the quote was taken out of context - a real danger then that it may be misunderstood. Please try to give a fair representation of the facts when quoting other people. Also, in that post you claim that this explains the origins of benzo.org.
