@St_Rev@badgermind Would be interesting to know how many people decide “I totally know how to start a cult, but won’t cuz it’s wrong.” -
@Meaningness@St_Rev Idea for article: the “actual meaning” of Buddhism is creating a benign cult to keep sheep out of darker ones :) -
@badgermind@St_Rev Intriguing idea! Isaac Bonewits used to recommend Silva Mind Control on the theory that as cults go, it’s benign. -
@Meaningness@badgermind I know of a number of smart people who got heavily into Gurdjieff and at least don't seem to have been hurt by it.
