It was very clear to me in reading Jessica's post that she was referring to
people who were very religious AND followed Ezzo and the like. It was a
fabulously enlightening take on why people would buy into it against their
instincts.  And she brought into it an important concept, religious or not:
babywise lovers and their ilk believe in suffering now for the reward
later--eternity notwithstanding--discipline baby now and you won't have a
teen on drugs, etc. For the religious and others, there is a huge distrust
of anything that seems like indulgence--i.e. meeting baby's needs, meeting
one's own needs.
