Message Subject Foursquare Church- Is it a cult?
Poster Handle oddclock
Post Content
Calling that a church is a cult because of doctrine is like saying that the problem in the Catholic Church is doctrine. The problem in the Catholic Church is abuse and the problem in Foursquare and cults is abuse. There are all kinds of abuse. In Foursquare it mainly seems to be about fraud. That may be different than the Catholic Church, but Foursquare can use the same methods as the Catholic Church to cover it up, such as paying victims to keep quiet. Because of the exposure of the Catholic Church, places in America and Europe are moving to change laws to protect victims. These laws will have to apply to all clergy; they couldn't single out the Catholic Church. That mean churches like Foursquare are going to have to start reporting abuse the the authorities. The Catholic Church got caught, but it is very large. Up to now churches like Foursquare could stay off the radar. With new laws, people are going find out that Churches like Foursquare are just as abusive as the Catholic Church if not worse. Abuse has little to do with doctrine or orthodoxy. All Churches are a cult to someone who believes differently but, hopefully, not all churches are dangerous. Contracts requiring victims to keep silent in exchange for money should be illegal.
