These sick people that Salon has paraded out in public only serve to alert the rest of this sick, crazy world that transformation doesn't work, that if you're a sinner, that's it. You're done. Stick a fork in yourself.
If real healing transformation takes place in any of these individuals, will Salon be there to report the miracle? Probably not.
We focus on what we want to hear and believe only what we have set our minds to believing. Everything else is screened out or otherwise delegitimized so that we can go on living our tragic lives towards an increasingly bitter end.
People can and do change, but Hollywood would be the last place a real seeker would look to find their salvation. It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man/woman to make it into the Kingdom of Heaven.
Once there, the sick and silent majority left behind don't want to hear about a way out of their self imposed exile and other existentialist miseries. It's just not "good" news from a media standpoint.
And yet it is the only GOOD NEWS that there is left to hear.
