An overview of the technique of obtaining and retaining control by appeals to fear and 'authority' in recent time can be [http://metanoia-films.org/the-power-principle/ found here]. Ironically, that promotion of The Teaching Mission and Magisterial Mission can be so prominently linked to such tactics is regrettable.

Hi Rob.
This should have gone to tmtalk. It isn't exactly appropriate for TML, although it does behoove us to be mindful of how cults are intertwined with religious politics, such as we have seen in Washington, D.C., and which we will no doubt revisit this year during election debates involving Mormonism. But again, this is not a topic for TML. I posted more on this topic on TMtalk and we can discuss it more over there, including what Heinlein put forth in "Stranger in a Strange Land" in which the televangelist controlled the way people vote.
That the Teaching Mission and the Monjoronson Mission are so prominently linked is indeed, regrettable.
See you on tmtalk!

Hello Gerdean-
I don't subscribe to the separation of religion and culture anymore than I do to the division of heaven and earth. It is into just vacuums of mind that is projected the illusions you cited and wish to dispel.
Gratefully,
Rob
