If you include your dad, how was 5 people a cult? That's just a twisted gathering.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

I assume no one else here has heard of it?
Anyways, my dad is kind of nuts so... lol. Yeah. My parents weren't traditionally religious but they believed in this weird shit.
Hmm never heard of it!
But in reading the link, it doesn't seem to really fall under the definition of cult.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

I'm from France and I'm 23 years old.
It's the first time in my life I'm reading something about this movement.
