What Marianne Williamson Gets Wrong About Competition

Marianne Williamson is no stranger to progressive politics. Known as Oprah Winfrey’s spiritual advisor, she has written extensively about her views and even ran for the Democratic nomination for the 2020 presidential election. She advocates a wealth tax, universal healthcare, free public college, and a host of other policies that would make President Biden look like a conservative by comparison.

‘Avatar’ Superfan Marianne Williamson Got A Little Too Obsessive With The Film While Talking To James Cam

Former Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson is easily one of the biggest Avatar fans on the planet. The self-proclaimed “spiritual thought leader” has been a long-time champion of the film and has gone so far as to say director James Cameron deserves a Nobel Prize for the film. While Williamson has repeatedly championed the film’s environmental and spiritual message, and even once tweeted “If you want a simple explanation for what’s happening in America, watch ‘Avatar’ again,” she took her obsession with the sci-fi film to a whole new level during a two hour interview with Cameron on a special episode of The Marianne Williamson Podcast.

Williamson, as you may recall, is a former presidential candidate and best selling author who tends to get into some very weird shit. Fake quotes, TikTok witches, and, apparently, an intense passion for all things Avatar.

Been Betrayed? Spiritual Author Marianne Williamson Has a Surprising Solution That Works

The surprising solution to betrayal? You need to pray for that person’s happiness for 30 days, five minutes every morning. When my marriage ended, the betrayal cut so deep that this was the last thing I wanted to do. I struggled with angry conversations in my head. I did not want to have to face the depth of my pain. This wasn't my fault. What I learned is that it is much easier to pray than to sit with the toxicity of anger and blame.

Marianne Williamson: America's Crisis of Adulthood | Opinion

One of my favorite stories from American history involves Dwight Eisenhower before the D-Day invasion. Meteorology being not nearly as sophisticated as it is now, the general received daily reports providing only a rough read on whether the following day's weather conditions would allow for the landing of Allied forces on the beach at Normandy. Though they had tricked the Germans into thinking the invasion would be in Calais, the Allies knew it was only a matter of time before the enemy figured out the deception. Commander Rommel, then in Germany for his wife's birthday, would surely come back quickly to take command of German forces in France. The invasion having been planned for months, it was time now for the Allies to act quickly.
