There’s often an attempt to link Quixtar with biblical morality, particularly by those pushing it. For example, one recent commenter remarker, after investigating Quixtar: "I don’t like the whole ‘good Christian’ thing."
Another recent commenter asked:
I have a couple of concerns for anyone who can help me. I was involved with Quixtar and Britt World Wide for a number of years, unsuccessful I might add. I’ve recently left the business because of an overwhelming feeling that what on the surface seemed to be Godly, was not in fact of God. Now, I have nothing against Quixtar as a business. I think that if you have the ambition and persistence, an MLM can be successful. What I do have a problem with is the cult-like organization that BWW has become. My brother is still involved, and I’m worried about him. He strongly believes that BWW is God’s calling for his life.
When I sat down with my would-be sponsor, she attempted to convince me that God’s best purpose for my life was to consume and promote Quixtar knick-knacks, and that I was actually being disobedient to God by pursuing my (much more lucrative, it turns out) talents in the software industry. That $70,000+ college education? A waste — because I wasn’t selling Quixtar!
So, if you buy into the bible, then what’s wrong with Quixtar?

My experience was quite similar in the Winters org, except Larry said "i think is was God's will for you to be here to be doing this, to help others threw this. God called you to be here with us." thaaaaats when i put the kool'aid down and reconsidered this "Business". Now I am not against Christianity at all,but when they called "This business" my calling i decided to part ways and take what i learned forward and leave the quixtar program behind me.
Chuck,
I think if you got to know me, you would think that I am an optimistic and positive person.
However, I don't see a lot of positive when people are getting ripped off in our industry.
Sugar coating the industry with positive fluff talk has not helped our reputation. I believe what will help our reputation is honesty.
If a company lands on these pages in a less than flattering post, rest assured, perhaps they will pay more attention to creating a positive expereince for their associates in the first place.
Ty,
Just a suggestion.
I'm learning Blogs are a great Platform for expression, but a young person, with your seeming Passion, could probably benefit yourself and others with POSITIVE Constructive Blog Information.
I think most "truly" successful Networkers.
The ones who have really made and are making much more than the people you cite and the 100's of thousands heading for that direction, are looking for POSITIVE INTERACTION.
I know our Network Associates are.
Just some idle ramblings from an old Man.
Thanks for your time & attention (our only real assets)
