But anybody who couldn't tell within 5 minutes that OYD was a cult has got to be pitifully ignorant.
Spending over $20 for a book about a cult seems IMHO to be a complete waste of $$$. I mean, I'd rather spend $11 for Sifu Starr's Yiliquan book except I'm not going to buy that one either.
Who the heck cares about some martial arts cult or somebody's experience with their teacher? It's not like one person's life is somehow more significant than anothers.
Who the heck cares about the Manson Family? Who the heck cares about the Pelopennisian War? People buy books about random subjects all the time. It's really not that strange. I might just check the book out, despite (or perhaps because) of my lack of knowledge about the subject. I'm just naturally curious like that.
