The end result, is never "arriving at a destination." The "goal posts" are always moved.
"You'll understand after _____". "You'll really get it after ____."
Ever learning, never able to come to any kind of knowledge of the truth.
You know, is there something wrong with having no destination?
The hamster wheel was very much there. However, as you got "deeper in", they would seemingly turn it around on you.
Like if you were wanting to experience what receiving revelation is, you'd go through all the classes and services they required, then, one day, they'd tell you you've been receiving revelation all along. That thought you had a year ago? Revelation. Happened to turn the car around at some point? That was the spirit. . . . Do you feel spiritual now?
A person constantly searching for something that they assume exists, after years of effort, might fall for anything if it means they finally succeeded.
Maybe no destination in mind is good sometimes. Maybe another thread topic somewhere . . . oh well I'm off validate my search for alien life.

The Way to run a cult.....
....the end result, always, is butts in seats.
....sitting in twig
....sitting in the next class
....sitting in meeting after meeting
....sitting in leaders' mtg about next meeting
....sitting in class to learn how to put more butts in seats.

Speaking as a person that's run his own company for the last 20 years...
They had everything. No taxes. Great profit margin. Free labor. Free advertising. Dedicated and committed workforce.
And they fsked it up big-time. If the had kept their dicks in their pants and spoke the truth, we'd still be coming to ROA 2015.

I would like to think that isn't true of me. But, who knows?

Interesting quote, Mr. Waysider.
How is a cult run? Does it have a goal? I'm not sure I see how yet, Mr. Skyrider, statements of activities here really.
"Yet, mindlessly and methodically....the cult drones on." . . . Is a cult run? Does it more or less self-perpetuate?
TWI is collecting money . . . for who really? Some foreign stockholder?
A cult has a business side. Running a home has a business aspect.
