Cult Twin powers, activate!

I did a little research at the library today and found something very, very...interesting.

As you know, I've attended roadside protests against an abusive teen "rehab" near Cincinnati 14 times in the past year. The facility is a cult.

I've also crusaded for years against a certain Catholic high school I once attended. Although the school claims to be based on Catholicism, it primarily is not. The school is actually a cult centered predominantly on the school's own leadership.

I'm 100% convinced both of the organizations I've criticized are cults. Not a shadow of a doubt.

But today I found a Kentucky Post article from 1987 - at which time I was in high school - that shows these two organizations joined forces. Many were probably hurt in the process.

Seems the school let the abusive "rehab" give a presentation there for the school's students and parents. I remember nothing of this appearance, but from the article it appears as if the purpose of it was to promote that particular program and bash other rehabs.

The scary part? If I was in attendance, I would've believed every word that was uttered at the event. Every last word. Back then, I didn't know any better. My high school was my drug, and it had a hold on me. If the school hosted what was purportedly a talk about drugs, I would've believed every syllable.

The event was sponsored by a civic organization, but I'll assume they had no knowledge of the facility's aims. But I'm sure my school knew. My school actually had "motivating" at a later event - which I'll never forget, because I was nearly trampled when I didn't know how to do it.

Abusive facilities recruit in schools. I think that's what was going on at the 1987 event, and I suspect the school knew it.

I don't know if all of you are on the same wavelength as I am, but to me this is an enormous discovery. It's downright damning. And it practically plopped right into my lap. I found the article because I was looking for information about the "rehab" - not about my former school.

If there were more people reading this who can appreciate my standpoint, it could easily blow the lid off some very dark secrets. But there are very few people reading this who have even heard of both cults, so I don't know where else to go with my discovery.

  1. I was in the program in '87, I was being psychologically tortured at the time this event happened at your school. Did this article mention any of the names of those giving the speaking engagement? I'll bet I know whomever it was.

    That is a great find!!!
