Re: Mind's Eye Re: Pat

Just about my view Gabby, to be honest.  What would we be saying if we had known Paul Gauguin - see http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/art/8011066/Is-it-wrong-to-admire-Paul-Gauguins-art.html - not that I connect any such lifehistory with Pat.

I agree with your analysis, RP. I share Pat's love for patterns and have experienced some of the side effects also. There are times and situations when this shown behaviour is normal. So these behavioural patterns don't really scare me. What got me really upset was the role of "publisher", a windy bubble creationist. The website was so crap, I understood I would not send one penny to this dubious enterprise and that they would not do anything to promote the book. I hope Pat has got more in sync with real people again.

I have not diagnosed someone's character , rather I have presented my estimate about his behaviour pattern. It is not a judgement but an analysis of  abnormal behaviour.

We are here to discuss ideas, RP, not the members characters.  Attack on a members character, even if your opinion is in the form of a diagnosis, is clearly outlawed in the guidelines.  Pat shared many interesting ideas in this group, and was appreciated by many of us.  Where I come from, we call an attack on someones character who is not present backstabbing, and is, by any measure, as Mando points out, a breach of trust.  Whether currently participating or not, we are not here to comment on people's character.  If you have any comments on string theory, or any other facet of Pat's book, I suggest you move on to discussing his ideas and away from diagnosing his or anyone else's character.

I have diagnosed an abnormal behaviour and do not attempt to make personality assessments of normal people.

So RP, Mr. psychologist, what are you going to write about Gabby if she goes out of communication based on her postings? ;)

Pat was a classical case of paranoid schizophrenia as revealed through his posts. In mental disorders , unlike physiological problems it is not absolutely necessary that you personally talk to the affected person. His disease can be definitely gleaned from his thoughts if they are clear enough , which in Pats case were quite transparent. As for the sub-types of schizophrenia , paranoid schizophrenia is quite unique because it involves paranoid thinking as well. No disrespect is intended towards Pat , a disease is a disease whether it is physical or mental. Besides , for years I knew about Pat's ailment but never voiced it out of consideration for his feelings , but now that for years he has gone out of communication I thought there was no harm in sharing my thoughts with you.

He was a very bright guy who offered is knowledge and ideas honestly, and, as you say Allan, without judgement and always with respect.  I will spare you my opinion of a psychologist who, without knowing someone personally and having never seen them professionally, would publicly declare a diagnosis of a person based on Internet group posts.

I have a copy also, lol. Took me a while to get it even though I paid for it as soon as I found out it was being published. I have read it .  His book has given me a lot to think about.
Most of all Pat was  friend, and a legitimate contributing member of this group. He was here when I arrived accepting me as I am without judgment.

Which leaves you RP

I did buy a copy.  Whatever my opinion of the book, I would never deem it a failure. IMHO, that is up to the author, taking into account his own goals and objectives for the book and its first publication.  If #books sold is anyone's criterion, they will need to reference the facts. I know that Pat worked for several years on that book.  Publicly declaring it a failure seems, to me, extraordinarily harsh, especially if unsubstantiated.

Pat had very high expectations. He believed that his 'BOOK' would sell in millions and bring about a paradigm shift. The failure of his book might have been heartbreaking for him and he might just not be in the mood to communicate with us.

I can't find him anywhere.  I also think of him from time to time.
