I guess you are gonna think I'm naive but I've always had a hard time believing that a cult could start with a perfectly normal person and get them to believe totally unbelievable things. When I was younger I used to wonder about picking a cult to join to prove I couldn't be brainwashed.

Of course, I'd also like to try to resist waterboarding so I may not be normal. I've read that most agents who experience it for training can't last 30 seconds even though intellectually they know there is no danger.

Area51 is right about Islam being a cult and right about how cults brainwash.

I've had some very close dealings with a cult that started as an Islamic sect. The parallels are exact - Islam is a caricature of a cult except that it's lasted so long.

And the followers are clearly brainwashed.

That said, this is a perfect example of why I replace my own toilets.

I thought I was the only one saying this. Islam, doesn't come close to meeting any of the standards of a religion
