More on "The Secret"

Here is another review of the Oprahized book, "The Secret". I think this is a secular review. Anita Creamer writes,

What's presumably intended as inspirational pablum for the masses quickly turns offensive when it becomes just another way of saying that victims deserve their fate.

Sometimes, people get lucky. Sometimes, they get unlucky. And sometimes, they make their own luck.

Byrne, for example, got lucky when she decided to market "The Secret" to a shallow American public eager to latch on to the easy answers of the latest self-help craze as a way to feel better about itself.

Or maybe she was just really shrewd.
