Check it out with someone reliable. So, I wonder if the lurking reporters realize that the informant Barry is also a purported science writer? That's actually how I met a couple of them. Others I've corresponded with because of their coverage of other cults, such as Scientology, the Andrew Cohen group, and pseudo-Christian groups. The latter are quite familiar with cult apologetics, and at determining what is fact, what is fantasy, and what are outright lies. They are also quite clear about my role here, which is that of provocateur, inciting people I consider cultists to lose their shit and thus reveal more of their cult thinking. Like some non-lurkers here, they may not agree with my tactics, but they often appreciate the results. :-) Oh, so you're some stooge then. I get it. Plant an obnoxious provocateur in the audience, the heckler, and this proves that others are cultists because they respond to the heckler? I think many who find you boorish and boring are simply demonstrating a spine and a natural aversion to assholes. Whatever you think your role is here as audience 'plant' it says way more about you than anyone else. I hope they're at least paying you for setting yourself up as the obnoxious shmuck.
