Again, it depends on your starting point.
Suppose I am reading a book entitled "How To Pick Good Stocks". I don't think you will say anything negative about the author.
Then suppose I am reading a book entitled "Seven Secrets to a Successful Career". Again I don't think you will say anything negative about the author.
Now suppose I am reading a book entitled "Get Fit in 90 Days". Once again I don't think you will say anything negative about the author.
BUT suppose I say to a friend, "I want to find out how to get rich, have a successful career and become fit. What books do you recommend?"
And my friend says, "Oh, all you need to do is read one book - The Secret" ...
... well, why then do you think negatively of the author? (Unless you do not think that LOA is real at all - but in this discussion, I am presuming that we do agree that LOA works).
