Gdaughter of Westboro defects from Cult

http://www.addictinginfo.org/2013/02/06/granddaughter-of-westboro-baptist-church-founder-defects-from-hate-cult-to-speak-out-video/.

a cult has a way of ensnaring its members with promises of spiritual freedom, the seductions of power and charisma, and in some cases, just the sheer influence gained by tapping into the fears, biases and bigotry of potential recruits.

scientology has used those many tools in attracting followers, as has every cult from jim jones with his peoples temple mass suicide tragedy in jonestown, guyana; david koresh and the branch davidians of waco notoriety, warren jeffs of the fundamentalist church of jesus christ of the latter-day saints and its polygamous sexual abuses; right up to the westboro baptist church and their pervasive and media-savvy mission statement of hate and bigotry.. while its one thing for adults to be ensnared, willingly or otherwise, its another for the children of cult members to be held captive simply for being unfortunate enough to be raised by a cult member.

A Born ins challenge to develop a "post cult" personality.
by stuckinamovement in
1. jw
2. friends
a born ins challenge to develop a post cult personality.. mentally leaving the organization can be traumatic for a number of reasons.

one of the biggest challenges for born-ins in finding their pre cult personality is that our entire personalities are based on the religion.

there is no such thing as a pre cult personality for us.
