My Other Blog
In case you’re interested, my other blog is here (The Muertos Blog, http://muertos.blog.com). In addition to debunking Thrive, which I decided merited its own dedicated blog, I also write about other conspiracy theories, as well as random subjects like movies, history, missing persons and mysteries, books, tech, heavy metal and numerous other things.

We are a group of people who were interviewed for and appear in the movie Thrive, and who hereby publicly disassociate ourselves from the film.
Thrive is a very different film from what we were led to expect when we agreed to be interviewed. We are dismayed that we were not given a chance to know its content until the time of its public release. We are equally dismayed that our participation is being used to give credibility to ideas and agendas that we see as dangerously misguided.
We stand by what each of us said when we were interviewed. But we have grave disagreements with some of the film’s content and feel the need to make this public statement to avoid the appearance that our presence in the film constitutes any kind of endorsement.

Those goddam paid disinformation agents!
Hi Mr. Robbins. Just out of curiosity, how did Mr. Gamble portray his film’s message when he invited you for an interview?
Here is Foster & Kimberly Gamble’s official response to John Robbins various posts concerning dissociating from THRIVE. http://www.thrivemovement.com/foster-and-kimberlys-response-to-john-robbins-critique-of-thrive
This response is extraordinarily disingenuous and bordering on dishonest. When will Mr. Gamble actually engage with the substantive issues regarding his film? Obviously I’ll have a more complete response later, but I think this statement raises more questions than it answers, and I simply can’t understand why a man of Foster Gamble’s obvious intelligence and good intentions is choosing to handle objection to his film in this condescending, dismissive and facetious manner.
” Our intention was never to make a political movie nor can we discern the value or logic of being judged by the political affiliations of the people from whom we have learned.”
*headdesk*
where else is this statement publicly stated? I’ve used the search terms on google: ” Thrive” and can’t seem to find an official statement by these people anywhere else except for this one blog. Please enlighten me.
OH wow the final straw. I see now that you are piggy backing on the Thrive following. You found a way to be ‘famous’ or what little fame you think you have achieved. I bet you try to sell things as well… or you have worked out a great little deal to make some extra money from this. Oh the simple truths. I really wish you the same treatment you have given Foster. And I am sure as the Thrive community realizes this site will no longer be populated.
