Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson discussed her own faith and criticized “conventional politicians” for lacking a “sophisticated understanding” of issues in the United States.
“Some people seem to think if you’re coming from a spiritual perspective, you’re less sophisticated. I respectfully disagree, I think you’re more sophisticated. I think people who have a deeper understanding and commitment to love tend to have a greater recognition of the power of evil,” Williamson told the New York Times on Thursday.
She then criticized politicians for not recognizing the “dark psychic force” she referenced in the second Democratic presidential debate.
“The conventional politicians haven’t been mentioning it because they don’t know what to say about it because there’s a lack of sophisticated understanding of what it is and what to do about it,” said Williamson.
