Diana:
Don't we have a thread on that dubious group Manataka?  >:(

kitten42:
Not that I could find using the search function, the only thread that came up was this one. If I have time today I might rectify that.

Ingeborg:

The search function produces 61 threads altogether for Manataka - e.g.:

http://www.newagefraud.org/smf/index.php?topic=324.0

http://www.newagefraud.org/smf/index.php?topic=439.0

http://www.newagefraud.org/smf/index.php?topic=1021.0

(The search function at the top right of the page is a waste of time mostly, but there is a better one on the top left - between 'help' and 'profile'.)

kitten42:
Thank you, greatly appreciated! I live in that area of the country, this is plumb embarrassing.

Defend the Sacred:
That looks to be one of the statements from Arvol that Paula sent out to a huge mailing list, and that was shared all over Facebook. However, I have not gone over it word by word in comparison to the original to see if they altered the text in any way. Manataka and other frauds have always tried to make themselves look more legitimate, and imply a connection with people they don't know, by reposting those kinds of public writings. They've even posted protection of ceremonies statements on one page, while violating the standards on another. We've tried, but there's not a lot we can do to keep skeevy people from sharing public posts, especially once anyone with a huge friends list posts it to Facebook and people start hitting "share."

When I posted that Arvol and Paula would be putting future statements on their own website, that was indeed the plan. But Paula has been more inclined to continue using email and Facebook.

And if it is not clear: Arvol still does not blog. He has no connection to the Manataka site. Manataka steals from everyone.


ETA: I've posted the original here: http://www.newagefraud.org/smf/index.php?topic=3790.msg37116#msg37116

At the very least, the frauds at Manataka only posted excerpts from it and they changed the title. If someone could go over both texts and see if they altered anything else, I'd appreciate it.
