Over the years of my research, I took some time to read through many of t he postings at TParent aka True Parent. The news letters of his own church promoted him as a demigod. This was not the work of MSM, but in his own words (or those he had write on his behalf). With he demands on his followers for money, adoration, and strict adherence to his many bizarre requirements, you'd have to work pretty hard to convince me that the Moonies were anything other than a cult.
