Thanks for emphasizing this point. I always stop people when they use the verb join in relationship to cults. Hearing that word always reveals they don’t know what they’re talking about. Additionally, I ask people if they’ve ever believed a lie. We are all vulnerable to deception in some way. Humility goes a long way when intentional targeting is at play. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.
Hmm. I met the Moonies /Unification Movement long ago, and I studied with them a little bit then I went back to school; and then I talked to my family and I worked for a while and then I came back and studied some more with them. Over time I realized this was the best way for me to use my creativity, my love for community, my love for learning, for a good mix of races, and appreciation for all Faiths.. "Recruitment" ? No. Just a normal process of curiosity, getting to know new friends, and finding a meaningful way to live. Stop the silly fear tactics Steve.
