Well, in all fairness, I just learned about the LOA not too long ago, so I have nothing invested in it either way. However, in talking about manifestation and LOA, who is to say that the subconscious has no understanding of negatives, i.e. "no" and "do not"?
For me personally, it's easier for me to grasp things in pictures, feelings, etc. However, I am beginning to see the same type of dogmatism crop up in the New aAge circles as from the fundamentalist relgions.
I think that it would be wise to at the very least consider John's point as opposed to engaging in a war of creds and names. I also, on the other hand, feel that John, or anyone else who feels that the scientific method and the sciences are the be-all and end-all to knowing and explaining the universe, to consider that not everything can be, and should be, explained away by means of imperical study and observation.
Just my $0.02, though.
