  I am not worried about Chron. I worry about making it. NOONE knows the day or the hour, no human anyway.

  so i finally decided to get my a** to the library and read some real research on cults.

  the book i'm starting with is "psychodynamic perspectives on religion, sect and cult.

  in the introduction they mention margaret thaler singer's definition of a destructive cult as an organization in which:a leader claims divinity or special relationship with god.

  I had a similiar experience. A long time back I fell short and smoked a cig. A brother said he saw me. I just told him you are seeing things and that was that.
