Interesting. I've published on his site a number of times. I have to parse this as some of those comments and the style in which points were made are reprehensible.

Many creators happen to be terrible people. Spiritual teachers too (in my second line of work, teaching meditation, it's cults all the way down...). I've never quite figured out what to do about that, when there is beauty and usefulness in their creations and teachings...

Things like this are absolutely an invitation to reconsider your relationship with the person responsible, no doubt about it.
