So, about those "indigo" and "crystal" children...

Someone left a comment in the recent post about "indigo" children mentioning "crystal" children. I was unfamiliar with the latter, so I googled it.

Were you aware that indigo and crystal children are not simply personality types, but are, in fact... THE NEXT F'ING STEP IN HUMAN EVOLUTION??

Crystal children? Spiritual/physical transformation into better beings?

Is this Final Fantasy 1 or something?

Well, of course. By the time Indigo really hit the...not mainstream, but you get the point, "Indigo adults" were possible. But then they made up discovered this new Crystal generation that's just supposed to be born starting around 2000, so a bunch of entitled adults now can't claim to be Crystal.

Must make a way for Crystal adults to be possible NAO, entitlement can't be expected to wait on evolution!

Many critics see the concept of indigo children as made up of extremely general traits, a sham diagnosis that is an alternative to a medical diagnosis, with a complete lack of science or studies to support it. The lack of science is acknowledged by some believers, including Doreen Virtue, author of The Care and Feeding of Indigos, and James Twyman, who produced two films on Indigo Children and offers materials and courses related to the phenomenon. Virtue has been criticized for claiming to have a Ph.D, though this was awarded by California Coast University, a then-unaccredited institution sometimes accused of being a diploma mill ( ... )
