TED talk: Ex-Moonie Diane Benscoter: How cults think

Quote:http://www.ted.com Diane Benscoter talks about how she joined the Moonies -- and stayed for five long years. She shares an insider's perspective on cults and extremist movements, and proposes a new way to think about today's most troubling conflicts.

This is one of the most powerful TED talks I've seen to date.
Best regards,
