Why the Gaia Community sucks

Why the Gaia Community sucks- this is not intended as an insult but as an attention grabber for those of you to see some of the fallacies supported by the Gaia related communities such as New Age and the Self Help movement.
In the last few days I've been communicating with a few New Age gurus who were mistaken to think I am one of them and that I support their frame of thought. Entertaining as it was this was not profitable to my current task of gathering energy for the revolution.
I do not appose New Ageism in particular as I do with organized religion, but I appose many of the underlying principles of New Age. Often I find that New Age falls pray to irrational thought, supporting blind belief over understanding. To make myself clear, I support rational thought and science. Even though many of my ideas are controversial I do not pretend to know best or to know more than experts and professionals. I simply let my imagination and thinking fly before my judgment, not in it's way. I simply take the facts science proves to be true and deduce from that what I can.
Remember, rational thought is the key civilization, without it we are nothing.
Let me also remind you that I do not affiliate with the self-help movement. A movement I believe to be an elaborate scam and which steals from our pockets billions of dollars a year. Many self help gurus such as Oprah and Dr. Phil make a living off giving simple advice to people to help their problems go away or point out the "bleedingly obvious". Overall such people and their programs are an insult to intelligence of anyone who is excited by them. Many times the Self help industry gives cheap solutions to problems and convinces people that their problems aren't their fault and will go away. Pop-psychology is on the rise and useful help is rare, if at all.
Too often do I hear "I did this and this and it didn't work, what should I do?" As Einstein so rightfully put it- "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." Fact is if you did X and it's not working for you try something else!
If self help books were really effective do you think there would be so many of them out there? Stop going through hundred of different books and gurus, you won't find your answer there! People always read these books because they are looking for some simple step-by-step guide or magic solution that would make their problems miraculously go away. Don't deny it, you've thought this too!
The only way you will solve your problems are by facing them head on, not by hiding and sleeping it off and mellowing it down. Stop searching in every religion, stop pretending what you have is the right path when it's not. You don't need someone else to tell you who you are, yo ushouldn't even care.
Self Improvement is masturbation, self destruction, on the other hand...
