La Luz del Mundo
Paul Cardin, Executive Director of the Centers for Apologetics Research in San Juan Capistrano, CA, chaired a session that opened with a presentation by Jorge Erdele, Ph.D., Director of the Research Center of the Mexican Christian Institute and Editor of the Latin American Journal for the Academic Study of Religions) on La Luz Del Mundo, a “transnational” group based in Mexico, with many members in the United States. Dr. Erdele indicated the ways in which La Luz, which has significant political influence and therefore protection in Mexico, exemplifies cultic processes, and detailed how sexual abuse is theologically justified and institutionalized among the leadership cadre. Ph.D. candidate Marcos Marin, formerly Professor of Anthropology of Religion and Ethnicity at the Unversidad La Habana, in Cuba, discussed his research, including cultic aspects of the Palo Monte religion, which has migrated to Florida.
