I don't get how people can be pulled into those cults, especially when they harm children. I'll be damned if I ever join some religion, legit or not, that insists on hurting or taking my child away from me.
I think it's one of those things were they get you incrementally. By the time you're at the point that you can't see your children you're already in too deep.
With all the information that is out there about Scientology (like hell, there was even a South Park episode about it) I don't know why anyone would join up, unless they wanted to get a "rank" of some sort.
I just saw a commercial on youtube for Scientology. It all sounded like the same story. "I was born into it/raised in it and I don't know anything better so other people should join too!" Very convincing.

Sounds like a lot of the Mormon propaganda. I was very fortunate to somehow always question that shit even though I was born into it.

I've always seen Scientology as Mormonism 2.0.
