Adults are just as likely to be brainwashed into a cult as any other age group. Try again.

Aw he can't handle sarcasm. I'm sorry that I'm too funny for you mate. Don't expect me to pat you on the back for bad posts though.

I'd describe it as the civilization destroying, power grabbing, money sucking, child raping cult you so dearly love, but to each their own.

People are what organizations are made up of and people are what make those organizations the way they are. This particular organization has had an incredibly long run of horrible behavior with a very far reach and hence it is one of the worst. The pillars it props itself up on are garbage and its source material is filled with atrocity and horror. Paint the monster with pretty colors and decorate it with flowers all you want, but it's still a monster you're defending.
