After 46 years, I got out!
For twenty years after being expelled from my cult, I remained mentally attached. I decided to see if there was a group in my situation and stumbled across the truth that I had been a victim of a cult.
The shunning of those who have left in disgrace by family members is cruel, manipulative, and inhuman. I live my life by the strictures of common decency and NOT those invented by the religion I was involved with.
It is impossible to wake up others by simply approaching them with facts. By non-aggressive activism which brings the public media to expose the control and abuse exercised by any cult, many devotees see the abuse and the truth from a third-party source.
