Has anyone experienced formal, deliberate and personal coercive persuasion in college? Lectures can be done in such a way as to encourage dulled consciousness, resulting in increased access to subconscious minds. It is step by step from there, just as this web site describes. |

I find this post to be too vague. there are too many colleges, too many areas of study and too many schools of thought to attribute any kind of cult status to colleges in general. It would require a grand conspiracy theory to do so. There may be political biases, such as liberal, secular Humanism. Or there may be dominant philosophical trends, such as post-modernism, or empiricism, but I don't see the any concerted effort to bait & switch multitudes of students. There may be some isolated pockets of cult activity, but I can't see them being representative of the whole system. |
