The World of Cults: Do you know what you are getting yourself into?

People have always found the necessity to fill their hearts and souls with something. In order to have that sense of fullfilment, people practice activities such as, sports, dancing classes, shopping, attending to church, and so on. One activity that has become very popular is attending to cults. In these organizations people can be in commnity with others, and be devoted to something. But, these organizations aren´t what they seem. Do people really know what they are getting themselves into?

Accordingto the characteristics of cults, people may think they are rainbows and butterflies. But the truth is that the only thing the managers of those places want is to manage your life for their own benefits. These people start to demeand things on you that you are not comfortable with, and that are way beyond your capacities. Cults managers also find the way to make you dependent on their meetings so that you can´t get out of the organization.

I recomend that if you need a place to be in community with others, to feel that you matter to someone else, or that you belong there, you should try to attend to a church. I believe that there is no harm in attending to a church and receiving God´s word every sunday morning.
