I think I'm probably the only guy on this whole forum who's actually bought Vitale's stuff from his website and I have to admit it's pretty awesome. He's actually totally not like what people describe him as. I believe that quote in the Secret was taken out of context or something because he totally talks about taking action in his actual products and he doesn't try to make it sound like you just sit around and do nothing.
The little girl rape thing has already been discussed on this forum countless times. True LOA believers believe we attract EVERYTHING. Steve's Subjective Reality model also believes the same thing. In other words Steve admits that in his subjective reality he CREATED Hitler, 9/11 etc. Or more accurately speaking, *I* created Steve, Hitler, 9/11, and you.
But these topics have already been discussed before
Even thought I feel the utmost sympathy for the little girl they are talking about I for one am not disappointed by Joe Vitale saying that he believes that little girl attracted that. It doesn't mean he's insensitive, it doesn't mean he's trying to be hurtful to the little girl (he didn't rape her), it simply means he truly believes in LoA 100% which means he has to accept that people attract everything. When a person wins $1M he attracted that, and when a person loses $1M he also attracted that too. When good things happen to people it's because they attract them, when bad things happen to people it's because they attract them as well. THat's just the concept of LoA. LoA doesn't have an age limit as to when you start to use it, so it's not like the little girl didn't have access to LoA at her age until she turns 18 or something, so if one was to believe in LoA and say that a 40 year old woman attracted a rape, then you have to say the same about a little girl. Also, LoA doesn't have some form of rule set where things like money and cars and toys CAN be attracted, but things like rape can't. If it actually exists, it has to work for everything.
Probably a better way to look at it is to take some of the emotionally charged aspect out of the discussion and ask yourself if you believe that if a farmer sitting in his living room drinking a glass of milk got hit by a meteor, did he attract that? If you think "Of course he didn't!" then you don't truly believe in LOA. If you truly believe in LoA, you have to believe that we attract EVERYTHING, including a meteor hitting you in the head.
