Re: “God Is Fear”? 10 Signs That Your Church is Becoming A Cult
It seems that many (aka: A Lot!) of people always skip by the most relevant part of a group being labeled as a cult - and that is this - Just Who Is Calling Who A Cult?
If Dr. Walter Martin calls the religious group you are in "a cult", then your parents, friends and loved ones may have a very good reason to believe that you are in a cult.
Then, 20+ years later, when Dr. Martin's illegitimate successor gets paid 100s of thousands of dollars of bribe money by said cult, and declares that Dr. Martin et al were all "wrong" about their original, legitimate, well-founded assessment, then your parents, friends and loved ones may still have a very good reason to believe that you are in a cult.
But alas...a duck is still a duck, whether it be called a duck by a world-renowned ornithologist, or a stuttering toddler. Just sayin......
