Generally, the articles you post are excellent, and I Thank You for posting all of them, including this one that is not excellent.
The author does not understand Carl Jung or many of the topics she speaks about.
First, Jung, a son of a minister and a long line of ministers in his family sought to understand religion(s) better.
In September 1909, when he and Freud came to America to participate in the Clark Lectures, he stayed as a guest at the University’s President’s house, (Stanley.Hall) with the Father of American psychology, William James. James, a Harvard Professor and also a medical doctor is famous for writing “Varities of Religious Experiences.”
Jung later wrote that this meeting was highly influential upon his career to study many of the religions of the world to find a greater understanding of the human psyche. James was old, and died with a year later while Jung was a young 33.
While I do not agree with Jung on many of his theories, he was by far instrumental in seeking scientifically to understand why Jesus taught us what He did about the human soul or spirit. He sought an objective scientific evaluation of all the world’s religions.
The author’s understanding of Christianity is shallow and rule oriented opinionated legalism filled with attacks based upon fear and not based upon a factual understanding. Her blatent use of logical fallacies of argumentation undermine any merit her message might have.

Your condemnatory critique of the author is odd in light of your dismissal of Jung’s demonization and the mainsprings of his ‘psychology’ revelations from Philemon and other spirit guides.
I agree. Jung was a deeply religious man who simply had a brilliangt percepion of the human condition and the energy of the world.
THe great poet and pandit, Rabindrinath Tagore, walked in pilgrimage all the way from India to Germany to meet Jung. Tagore regarded Jung as a holy man. People should ask themselves why that is, instead of trying to protect their false virtue with garlic, holy water, and silver bullets.I think Jung is just over their heads.
One other thing so their is a lttle context. When Jung died at his home in Germany, a lightning bolt struck the apple tree in his garden, splitting it in two. Jung was a deeply reigious man.
So what?
He was involved with the demonic and trying to hold up God's word to be validated by demonic and human reasoning is ridiculous.
It's kind of staggering that people who call themselves Christian use men as their objective truth to interpret and analyze the word of God by as if science and human reasoning is infallible and Truth and God's word isn't.
It really doesn't matter if Jung got *some things right*>
The fact that he was dead wrong on many others is enough to not trust the things some people feel he got correct.
