| | |  Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - Kenneth Wapnick - Introduction to Schucman and Thetford
During the course of the many transitions that were required for Wapnick’s planned entrance into the monastic life, Wapnick was introduced to a few different priests and related circles of friends. Amongst these new introductions were two psychologists who stood out in particular. These two psychologists were introduced to him as a result of some of their shared interests in the psychology of religious experience. These were Dr. Helen Schucman and Dr. William Thetford of the Columbia University School of Medicine, to whom Wapnick was first ...

| | | | Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - William Thetford - Early childhood Thetford was born on April 23, 1923 in Chicago, Illinois to John R. and Mabel K. Thetford as the youngest of three children. At the time of his birth and early childhood, his parents were both regular members of the Christian Science Church.

| | | | Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - William Thetford - University education Following graduation from high school, he was awarded a four-year scholarship to DePauw University in Indiana where he graduated with majors in psychology and pre-medicine in 1944. During the course of his university studies, Thetford eventually settled on the idea of specializing in psychology, and in 1949 he received his Ph.D. in this field from the University of Chicago.

| | | | Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - William Thetford - Thetford's Invitation for ACIM The working relationship between Thetford and Schucman was apparently often somewhat strained, yet throughout these difficulties they would always maintain a certain level of professional courtesy and respect for one another. The story is often retold that it was into this environment of inter-relational strain between Thetford and Schucman that the ACIM material was in a sense first “invited” into this world. This “invitation” came in the form of an exclamation by Thetford one day, in the midst of one of their periodic difficulties, ...

| | | | Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - William Thetford - The years of ACIM transcription Finally in October of that year, the transcriptions of what is now known as ACIM first began. According to both Thetford and Schucman, due to Schucman’s intensely divided feelings about the work of the transcription, Schucman would at times require a great deal of reassurance from Thetford in order to complete the process that eventually resulted in the first typewritten copy of ACIM, (which later became known as the Urtext).
According to Thetford, Schucman was sitting at home on the night of October 21st, when she heard an internal ...

| | | | Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - William Thetford - Move to California In 1978 Thetford resigned from his positions at both Columbia University and at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital. In 1980 he packed up his household, and at the apparent invitation of Judith Skutch Whitson, moved to Tiburon California, where Whitson was by now employed full time in the publication and distribution of ACIM.
Now at age 57, in Tiburon Thetford transitioned into a sort of semi-retirement, no longer accepting any demanding positions of heavy responsibility in either his professional life, or in his involvement with the ever ...

| | | | Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - William Thetford - Anecdotal accounts of Thetford's California life During one such interchange with his friend Judith Skutch Whitson, Whitson describes calling Thetford during a moment of extremely high tension in her relationship with Jampolski. In the phone conversation Whitson went on at length, describing what she perceived to be Jampolski’s many faults. Thetford listened intently until Whitson finally ran out of breath. He then quietly said, "Judy, the Course (ACIM) can be summed up in the question, 'Are you willing to see your brother sinless?' "
"No!" Whitson screamed.
"Well, dea ...

A Course In Miracles - Comparison of ACIM to Christianity.
According to the historical theological roots of most Christian denominations, the most favorable view is that a manuscript such as ACIM must be as an apocryphal work. Early Christian teachings recommend that such documents, at their very best, must always be considered as secondary in authority to the Bible. This official teaching of the early Christian Church regarding such writings was finally agreed upon by the Church Fathers of the fourth and ...

| | | | Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - Charles Buell Anderson - Early teachings At about this time, Anderson’s students were informed that they should begin preparations to find local accommodations for approximately 10,000 students who were expected to arrive ‘soon’. They were told that 12 fully illuminated disciples would be chosen to establish 12 regional teaching centers throughout the world.
During these early formative years of Anderson’s organization, Anderson’s students were also first taught by Anderson of the existence of a certain list, which contained the names of certain students tha ...

| | | | Dr. Kenneth Wapnick: Encyclopedia II - Charles Buell Anderson - Comparison of teachings to ACIM teachings Since the time of Anderson's earlier teachings, even though some minor terminology and secondary details appear to have made some slight shifts, still the underlying fundamental premesis of these teachings appears to have remained essentially unchanged. Should one wish to determine whether or not Anderson’s taechings accurately represent the teachings of A Course In Miracles, a comparison of these two teachings becomes necessary. In summary, Anderson appears to teach that he has a special mission to assist a select group of people to achie ...

Amongst Anderson’s first students were former fellow AA members that Anderson had sponsored while in that organization. According to writer Kaley Picone, it was Anderson’s discovery of the book, A Course In Miracles, that resulted in his first gaining of dozens, then hundreds of new students. Also in 1991 Anderson first began to acquire prop ...
