Send us a text. Thank you for your messages I really appreciate it 😁

Cults are groups that revolve around a charismatic leader and promote a set of beliefs or practices that are typically unconventional or extreme. These groups often exhibit manipulative tactics to control and influence their members. Cult leaders can use psychological, emotional, and sometimes physical coercion to maintain their power. Members may become isolated from friends and family, as cults typically emphasize strict loyalty to the group. Cults often employ various techniques, such as mind control, indoctrination, and thought reform, to shape the beliefs and behaviors of their followers. The consequences of involvement in a cult can be profound, ranging from psychological harm to even physical danger in some cases. I’m sure you will have heard of the famous cults such as the Manson family or heavens gate, but have you heard of Roch Theriault and the ant hill kids? Well the story that comes with this cult will show you the true depths of human depravity and the unbelievable control a person can have.
