JUST got back from the Conference on Cults here

Catholics think they are free of these because of Catholic groups' doctrinal orthodoxy; they forget a cult is a cult because of its METHODS: how it RECRUITS, RETAINS AND RELEASES -OR NOT!- MEMBERS; it is characterized by CHARISMATIC LEADER weilding limitless power over the members and absorbing more and more of their energies, devotion, love and life.
