Here's my two cents.
There are going to be people who don't understand why Oprah put The Secret on her show. I believe them to be the same as my nursing professor who recently said to me how she believed Oprah to be the first to jump "on the rascist bandwagon" (negative tone of voice is inserted here). They just don't see Oprah's intentions as good or as a higher sort of service.
& those who don't understand the Secret well.. it's like perspective. You see what you focus on. I'm sure there are many who surf these forums who can explain it more concisely & elegantly than I can but basically a person cannot understand physics from an elementary math level. It's just not going to happen. You need to know your 1+1's to get to the derivative of what xsquared is.
I didn't get exposed to Manifestation until I was ready for it personally speaking. Up until I did I lived my life entirely sure I was the victim of some kind of circumstance & honestly, if someone had tried to force it down my throat I would've been resistant. I've seen Oprah get huge slack for her putting her reputation on the line for The Secret but it's to be expected. Not everyone's going to understand it & that's fine but I think it's too bad people pick all kinds of points to rip people apart. ::shrug:: Good thing a lot of us don't!
& btw, just to add a point. Oprah appeared on Ellen DeGeneres' coming out episode apparently (I didn't watch the show) & she got huge huge criticism for doing so in supporting the gay population. I suspect people ripping Oprah on supporting The Secret is action along the same line of thought. Close-mindedness & an unwillingness to be even remotely open or entertain another person's perspective.
