Short-lived elation following the last post as I grieve leaving the familiar. How can something seem so right at one point in our lives and then later be questioned as to being a cult? I'd say it is because in the beginning, the whole story about what the organization is about is just not told and if you ask a question where the answer is going to reveal too much for a regular person to accept, you are told that it will be dealt with later which gives them the time to hook you by promises of being able to see the spiritual world for yourself after a couple of years of study. Here is a good summary of what I have allowed myself to be subject to over the past two years minus the happenings to this man's wife. In my case the woman in control of our working group was allowed to intimidate us into conformity and the men didn't want to know about our complaints.
Here are some more things I have found about the group - http://forum.rickross.com/read.php?12,34154,page=2

Why are the very people who have been promising their support the ones that turn into those who will refuse to have anything to do with you? It happened at Gipps St Church of Christ and I expect it to happen again as word spreads that I am no longer contributing to their PR work. So now I begin the process of 'undoing' once again.
2010 is bringing change and although I may have considered my past experiences failures to find the truth, I just now reconsidered my idea on failure. One silly tweet on twitter was not so silly - "The formula for success is to double your failures". It sounds like a strange New Year's Resolution so I will probably amend it to trying not to fear failure so much. My goal is still to be able to have a fulfilling relationship with that which gave me Life. My faith in a Higher power will not be taken away from me. However, trying to figure out what this Force wants of me is very hard.
