Well, good bye everyone. I enjoyed my time here. Frankly, internet forum communicating is not my cup of tea. Good luck with exposing the SGI cult. Time to move on.

Kasumi, Usually when people first step onto this board, they offer a bit of themselves and explain why they have decided to participate in this forum thread. You on the other hand, have not explained or given anything, yet you expect to take here. This aggressive entrance, first asking for sensitive information and then expecting us to rally around your questions, appears to be a sign of

Hello goodgirl, Thank you for sharing your story and I am sure people here will attempt to help you with the best of their abilities. Also, this site is perfect for healing. Leaving the SGI cult is similar to food poisoning. You continue to eject (throw up) what you digested (SGI cult) through analysis and sharing with others your insights and stories. This thread is actually quite good for d

Great posts. In case there is any confusion, I am no way bashing Japan or Japanese people in general. What I am bashing is the cult mentality which in this case, happens to be Japanese. I am sure christian missionaries that have gone abroad beyond the west had their own form of zealotry and sense of conquest, of course this thread is not about the attitudes of christian missionaries.

The Soka Gakkai hit these shores with the same determination as an attack on Pearl Harbor. They have no scruples and everything is permitted for survival. Instead of throwing bombs, they throw hardcore female cult members from Asia to burrow down into the fabric of American society. They use mind control with the same focus and aim as a smoking rifle. Not to get people riled up in hatred ag

Fortune Baby. The entire concept is cult. The moonies get matched marriages so that they can ensure that intervening through relationship and offspring equals a trap whereas no one leaves the cult. It's a cult that attempts to control your every aspect, even getting in between the sperm and the egg. The soka gakkai can't become full blown moonie because of the particular

If all we do is help one person leave or from entering the SGI cult, we have succeeded. This thread has sure helped me. As noted before, not likely that it will be demolished, but hopefully enough people get the word out that young people don't get trapped and ensnared by it's clutches.
Forum: Former Cult Members and Affected Families

It seems that many people stay in cults because they like the restraint and pressure to conform that it provides. It's a ready made social network and existence which bonds people. Most of us form bonds with groups and absorb consensus. The difference is that it's primarily organic, though if you look closely there is always a leader involved. Someone who is dominant. I suppose
Forum: Former Cult Members and Affected Families

Two points. First, I have only left the SGI cult somewhat recently. My use of "Bullshit" is a survival mechanism. My understanding is that Atheism is simply a system lacking belief. Without belief one has gaps in one's sense of totality. There is a relationship with the unknown with an incomplete view. As a system, it's not standing on a fixed line, espousing on a nihil
Forum: Former Cult Members and Affected Families

Absolutely. It's the cult cured, brain washing hijacked version which is "bullshit" while the historical path of uttering phrases repeatedly is in itself something that is neutral in so much as the focus of cults. It's interesting that the discussion has actually broadened through different points being made , honing in a more accurate sense of the spirit of this thread.
Forum: Former Cult Members and Affected Families

Good point. I think that we are all here to focus on the SGI cult and expose the organization for what it is. From time to time, there will be flair ups and disagreements. As I had stated in my last post, I am most likely dancing on the head of a pin and subsequently, I do not hold emotion over the matter. If I offended anyone I apologize. That's not why I started participating on

Anti-Cult, With all due respect, how do you know how people feel and that they don't seem to feel threatened. Have you done a poll? I don't want to see people discouraged from participating.

Thanks for the lecture. I am a former member, which is why I am here. Secondly, I am not here for one upmanship games, or who can write the cutest, smartest post....

Rattyboy you have a certain point. If we lose focus on the SGI cult due to pushing atheism, we might be losing a large segment of people who might otherwise join into the discussion. I do like the direction this thread is going. How do people leave? You are tangled up in the social dynamics of the cult. You have made friends through the organization and you have spent so much t

Incredible posts. Anyone who reads the content here will definitely have a contrasting view to the Soka cult narrative. This thread is a great resource for unmasking the SGI. There is nothing more liberating than exiting a corrupt system. Even if one is only on the fringe, the mere connection is dangerous to your well being.

Watching North Korean Documentaries over the last couple of days, I have seen so many similarities. Check them out on Youtube and discover how the Soka Gakkai mirrors it's counterpart.

Here are some of my theories regarding the continued momentum to crystalize Ikeda as the center stage totem for the SGI cult. The Soka Gakkai is fearful of the future. First, since leaving the Nichiren Shoshu, the Soka Gakkai grandiose bubble has been popped. It dawned on them after the aggressive split and distancing that the Soka Gakkai no longer had a firm foundation or legacy in which t

Great videos. The commercials clearly take montages of organic experiences that children relate with and stamp the Cult all over it as a means to co-opt those expressions for the cult.
