That is the stupidest most insecure thing I have ever heard. The only thing that kind of faith might be appropriate for is belief in God. But trying to apply that kind of unwavering faith in an investment....is really, really stupid!

I guess some don't have the level of spiritual faith that I have. You see faith in God and faith in this company as separate things. But true faith in God affects ALL aspects of one's life, whether it be their work or their investments. My faith in God gives me great comfort in my investment with Amarantus, because I've done my homework. I understand the risk involved, but I also believe Gerald and John and the team they've assembled are intelligent, hard working, honest and passionate people in their fields. I believe God has a hand in helping companies like this succeed. It may fail or it may succeed, but it will do so according to his will. I will monitor their progress, and at some point I may become dissatisfied with the company as an investment and move out of it, but my faith keeps me from reacting like Chicken Little whenever we encounter a bump in the road. If I am successful with this investment, it will be because of God's will and my due diligence. If not, it will still be God's will and my responsibility, no one else's. No blame will be put toward anyone except the man I see in my mirror.

If I'm drinking Kool Aid, it's Kool Aid made by my creator and it allows me to remain rational even during times I might have concerns. I take the concerns to the source, and act on them appropriately if necessary. It does no good to complain here. No one on this board can do anything about my concerns.

Someone here asked if you'd taken your concerns over the CPT codes to the company for an answer? I noticed there was no response to the question, so it appears no effort was made to get an answer, other than trying to put a negative spin on it on the board.

Some people here think AMBS has absolutely no chance of failure, and all we have to do is have faith in Gerald, never complain, and one day we'll all be rich. That is the biggest fairy tale approach to investing that I have ever witnessed!

That's funny. The biggest fairy tale approach to investing I've ever witnessed is investors who invest in a penny stock with more money than they can afford to lose, with the hopes of striking it rich. I bet these investors buy lottery tickets as well, with the same hope of striking it rich. They invest money in stocks, a traditional long-term investment that any reputable financial planner will tell you has an outlook of 5 years minimum. They don't advise you to invest in stocks and then watch it like a hawk and hold management's feet to the fire over every little decision. That's something the long wannabe investors create for themselves, calling it due diligence and being a concerned and intelligent investor. A reputable financial planner would say that was pretty stupid.
