if indoctrination into your belief system is fear-based, you can't call it a religion of love. well, you could. i guess. but that's not what i call love.
and if your "spiritual" heirarchy resembles one of those MLM pyramid schemes, it's a scam. sure amway has some good products, but they got some shit, too. and do you really want to invite someone over who you know is just going to try to recruit you into joining the same scam, because that's how they get "higher" up?
and if you combine MLM and fear-based religious indoctrination, what do you get? pascal's wager! that's what! ...and christian apologetics, in general. which, as i've been harping on lately, is the objectification of subjective [spiritual] experience, and as such is used as a tool to control people, rather than empowering them, which would set us all free....
