Well, my opinion may be biased, but it is my impression that as an "alternative community" forum, The One Truth is one of the most level-headed ones out there — or at least, we are now, because we too have had to learn and grow. We have open minds, but we're not really blind believers anymore. The thrill-seekers, the guru-seekers and the emotionally immature have already long left the forum, and the level-headed members have remained.
I think we're on the right path, or that is to say, at least on account of truth-seeking. For some, there's still quite a bit of work to be done on account of themselves as people. Being aware of the deception isn't the same thing as being enlightened and/or becoming a better human being.
