Also I should mention that this is some kind of a movement (JTL Journey To Life) where people update everyday through social networks. Personally I am highly against social spiritual movements in general, they scare me, especially when people tells other people that they have found the trought about something. The person that started this movement, Bernard Poolman, says that it will take us all a minimum of seven years, if we all apply to his program, to change the world. This will happen through constant selfobservation to forgive yourself (of what i dont know, maybe it's the sin we were all apparently born with) until we reach "nuthingness".
When I heard this interwiev, I thought "well, this is not all bad" but after ahile i noticed that first he tells me that to be afraid of cults are to be unsure of ourselves, our critical thinking and intellect, then he tells me that cult leaders pray on peoples fears and that he is not one of them because he is only trying to get people to think critically. I then realized that he had actually prayed on my fear of cults and insulted my intellectual power for doing so. That is such a wrong statement.
When I studied sociology, we lerned about the Millgram experiment that proves that all people are more likely to respond with obedience to authorety than we would like to think. Most of us will even take an order to kill someone when someone tells us to. To think that you would not be in the 60% that would give someone a deadly dose of electrisity because of that you have a higher intellect than all others is simply arrogance.
My conclusion is that we should all be afraid of cults, and also of Bernard.
