I did like that Gary Renard said "God did not create the universe."

According to the Teachers Manual, any variety of psychic phenomena are possible and / or likely depending on the needs of specific individuals. What ACIM is very clear about is that none of these phenomena make one a "special person." Discernment is appropriate, one should not assume that guides speak "truth," have highest altruistic motivations, or that one is interpreting what is said correctly (i.e. consistently with ACIM). My teachers Jack and Eulalia Luckett, pointed out that there are basicially two schols of ACIM thought 1) those who focus on the mechanics of ego and 2) those who focus on getting over themselves and sharing love, forgiveness and healing. I think it's pretty easy to see where the contoversy comes from. I admire Jon Mundy and Robt. Perry for their moderate stances.

Just curious to hear perspectives.
