Shirley MacLaine and the New Age
Shirley MacLaine is in the K mart of the New Age movement.
There is, of course, a place for K marts in the scheme of things, but one who considers herself a teacher needs to know her own limitations. As Socrates and all the great teachers have said, wisdom begins in recognizing one’s ignorance. According to your article, “Never once during the two-day seminar does she answer: ‘I don’t know.’ ”
This talented performer is giving a ludicrous face to some of humanity’s most ancient and most needed truths.
