Liars and Ethics
News & Updates
I recently ran across a large hypnosis group who advertised on thier website, someone as being a stage hypnotist for 27 years. Unfortuneatley, this person has only been a stage hypnotist for 12 or 13 years. I found this to be a great exaggeration and I contacted the person who endorsed the page, a well know teacher of hypnosis. He said that “Hypnotists exaggerate thier history and achievements” I thought that the condoning of false statements is unethical. It goes against this organization’s code of ethics. This person teaches a stage hypnosis course and teaches a chapter on ethics, very ironic? Why do people have to lie about thier history and achievements? Do they want to feel more important than they really are? Are they afraid people will not deal with them unless they are “super” qualified? Are they out to satisfy thier own petty ego’s? I am against anyone lying about what they have done proffessionally whether it be of how many years experience they have or that they purchased a “Ph D” online. Would you be happy if you found out the person operating on you had only half the experience that they said they did? I thought about not speaking up on this matter but, evil is allowed to flourish when good men do nothing. The neat thing about this is that even though I found out it is “okay” to lie, the web page that had these claims has been taken down. Be confident in your achievements no matter how big or small and celebrate them, their yours. Don’t take the liars way out, if you don’t stand up to them, then why should anyone tell the truth?
