What should you do if a loved one becomes indoctrinated by a potentially dangerous cult? By providing specific accounts of dangerous cults and their destructive acts, Snow illustrates how seemingly innocent groups can turn pernicious when under the sway of a charismatic leader with an agenda, or when members take things too far. He offers advice on how to identify cults, how to protect yourself and your family, and what to do if a loved one is ensnared by such a group. Annotation. Snow, a veteran Indianapolis police officer in the homicide branch, does not bother with groups that are demonized as cults merely because they diverge from someone else's idea of truth or proper deportment, but focuses on those that are responsible for major crimes such as murder and torture. They include religious, occult, millennial, new-age, UFO, doomsday, and suicide cults. He also discusses their danger, appeal, recruitment, and indoctrination and how to combat them. 000294483 650_0 $$aCrime$$xReligious aspects. 000294483 650_0 $$aCults. 000294483 85200 $$bgen$$hBL65.C7$$iS66$$i2003 000294483 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:294483$$pGLOBAL_SET 000294483 980__ $$aBIB 000294483 980__ $$aBOOK 000294483 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
