The Wisdom of Insane Exploitative Cults
 
Quote:

The only real way out of our own self-hatred and self-destructive nature is not declaring how right we are, but rather in accepting how wrong we are. It comes in questioning those base instincts, those knee-jerk judgments. It comes in the courage to question our most closely-held beliefs and fight against the tyranny of our own certainty.

God save us from the true believers.

Belief like this is the cure that worsens the disease.

And after 50 years or so... If the Feds haven't invaded your compound.. You're a fully fledged religion... Just like Scientology. Stay the course a bit more.. you're just like Mormonism.. Give it even little longer and it's just like Islam or Christianity.
