Haha yes, this is exactly the thought process. In many tribal cultures, they realize that the universe is a system of cycles in which all of the infinite possibilities are carried out. Therefore, anything that might happen or could happen is treated as though it already has happened and they respond accordingly. So from their point of view, where else could the fat children have gone? Its possible that he's done this, and the universe is the culmination of all possibilities, therefore he must have done this. Compounding this, groupthink is HUGE in tribal culture lol its quite the fad. Its pretty much essential for cohesiveness among the tribes and rarely will members question the ideas (no matter how crazy) of the elders. This makes witch hunts commonplace.
Deleted User,
Its incredibly frustrating. I can either be on one side or the other; A vendor, or an author. Even if I wrote a book or database, they would consider it marketing material for my products. I've posed this theoretical question to them as well. This was the issue that they took up with Rain-Tree. Dr. Taylor removed all information from the products listings and created a separate database which didn't even link back to her retail store, but since it was her writings and she was connected to both, they still considered the database as promotion of her materials. It has to be an organization or individual totally unconnected to the business, or else I have to choose one or the other vendor or author. Since no one really wants to listen to someone like myself talk about botanicals as much as they want first hand experience with them, I choose to be a vendor rather than an author. Although I do have my private collection of writings which I will release when I decide to exit the distribution side of things.
