Title: Cults Are Everything Outside Fundamentalist Christianity
Product review: One of the defining characteristics of a cult is the mentality that says 'we are the singular guardians of Truth.' Too sadly, this publication practices those ugly attributes it attempts to expose.As a gnostic Christian, I think this book should be renamed "Cults are Everyone and Everything Outside Fundamentalist Christianity." While this book is informative about the history and evolution of some of the major world religions and sects, it is clearly written with foregone conclusions. The authors mentality of my knowledge of Christianity is right, so 'everyone else must be a cultist' is not consistent with the teachings of the Christ that he espouces to follow. Had the author done more homework on the political history and the evolution of Christianity, he might have been better prepared to render an objective dissertation on the syncretism of ALL religions.
