1. History of the term:
The technical definition of the concept 'Secta'comenzó with the work of German sociologist Max Weber , which defined the sect in opposition to the church . It counts among her children to the saint and the sinner, the just and the unjust, in contrast to the sect, which only accepts followers committed.
In the case of the sect, membership is voluntary and must be earned, while the church does not demand special qualities and sets conditions for entry into its bosom.
Never before has spoken so much of the sectarian problem. Today's topic of debate in the Catholic Church, Protestant churches and the universities are conducting studies to understand the complex factors that move around the sectarian world.
sects and followers increase as well. Is that when the crisis reaches limits experienced by Argentina, men and especially young people will become more vulnerable to irrationality and fanaticism. The
dictionary of the English Royal Academy defines a cult as: 'it: 1 set of followers of a religious and ideological bias, 2 religious doctrine or ideology that is different and independent of another, 3 set of believers in a doctrine or particularly loyal to a religion that the speaker considers false.
The Santagada Osvaldo Argentine Catholic priest, speaking of sects are described as "a group American Protestant background with action constant proselytizing in our country. "
In change, a sociologist, describe a cult as a group of people bound together by the fact of following a certain doctrine and / or leader and often have been spun off a greater doctrinal group.
"... a destructive cult is anyone in their group dynamic uptake and / or indoctrination, use of coercive persuasion techniques that promote the destruction of the personality adept or prior damaging it severely. The vital dynamics that gives rise to the total destruction or severe emotional ties and sectarian affective communication with their usual social environment and himself. All members are dependent on group dynamics and lose their structure and his idea of \u200b\u200bindividual thought in favor of collective idea, creating a phenomenon often psychic epidemic.
2. Clasificasión
groups are structured and highly organized totalitarian advocating a new system of life and force their followers to total submission. Usually these groups live in communities and the leader has all the power . They try to attract young of class middle and high, and our country rent houses in residential areas of Martinez, San Isidro and the main cities of the interior.
According to sociologist Richard Ofshe "the head of the group requires special obedience to the members. The ability to enforce these demands and reinforce them with punishment, including extortion and there is a continuous and brutal humiliation to the group if ignored, says as an individual which initially is an idealist nonviolent may want to participate in plans to assassinate enemies of the group. "

4. dangerous sects
These groups do not use techniques of thought reform and take advantage of the situation of poverty and marginalization living the American continent.
One of the fastest ways to recognize these groups is to examine their attitudes : stiff creed, no cooperation with other churches, to convince himself that his credo was no possibility of "salvation" are apocalyptic and expect " end of the world, using a simple language, emotional and sentimental, they think that this world is essentially evil and wicked.
5. Leaders: psychopaths or enlightened? Man
both poor and rich need to believe, need to share something transcendental, not just believers in God, even those who deny
Leaders there are many. Know themselves guru, teacher, pastor, reverend, prophet etc. All, in varying degrees seeking to exercise a divine power. This means that the leader knows everything and foresees everything. No one can doubt her statements or their letters or orders. The leader domain is such that even the most irrational fact is accepted. Being a leader is not wrong to be a leader if it is the fanatic fan finds his belief, his ideal as sacred and as such above all else. Another feature of faith is fanatical intolerance, can not bear to contradict: Tense is excited and rages against which different opinion. Not support the other's arguments because he is forced to question their beliefs and open cracks in the monolith. Therefore prefer to proselytize and convince him to others.
A fanatic is a man deeply frustrated, is a frustration of the self, one's own identity . Feeling disappointed fanatic about their own abilities, he chooses as a solution for change of identity, to waive their individual attributes identified totally with an ideal. In short, the fan hates it may contradict reality and is therefore willing to die and kill for their ideals.
All sects, especially destructive ones, have a leader, a messianic figure, charismatic, with great personal charm and great power of attraction, what psychologists call expansive paranoid becomes master of body and soul of the follower, and obviously your money and your family if possible.
The leader has the distinction of being subjected to impulsive tendencies sadomasochistic uses to escape from the oppressive sense of isolation, insignificance and helplessness that threat. The sadist, interestingly, depends on your mastered to survive mentally. Another characteristic of cult leaders is that they have a personality parody (as Freud paranoid delusions are based on desires and fears and the main ones are: the persecution, injustice, erotic type and delusions of grandeur). Another feature
have cult leaders is suffering from a "malignant narcissism." They are characterized by extreme feelings of grandiosity, sadistic cruelty, suspicion, paranoia and a total lack of sense of guilt .
His grandiosity, arrogance manifested in, sits in his deep belief that they are destined for something special in life, what sets them apart from ordinary beings. Any aggression is justified to pursue objectives set.
The "malignant narcissism" enjoy to hurt others and are stalked by continuing suspicions, also seeing as victims persecution of a plot and allocating its own cruelty to his enemies. Devoid of any moral sense or consciousness, so they lie, cheat and exploit others without remorse.
Many wonder what is the step that leads the individual to form at one time a destructive cult. Hard to say but usually that person begins to form small groups that can control and to hear his power increases and weakens the will of others, stepping up its domain.
When the group begins to grow, the leader creates almost always a dictatorial structure and is surrounded by aides who follow him faithfully. The leader manages more
easily to an individual if in the group. In a crowd cleared individual acquisitions, disappearing personality of each one of those who compose it. Freud in his
Psychology of the Masses and Analysis of the Ego, in the crowd expressed affection is greatly enhanced and instead limited their intellectual activity.
Identification is known in the psychoanalysis as the earliest manifestation of an emotional bond to someone else and plays an important role in the Oedipus complex. The child expresses a special interest by his father, wants to be him and replace everything. Makes his an ideal father. Individuals with a mass currently still need the illusion that the chief loves everyone with a love fair and equitable, while the chief himself needs no love nobody.
"No to man who remains free, worry more consistent, more poignant is that of seeking a being to whom lean."
Any person can be captured by a destructive cult in the "right time." Young people, especially teenagers, are prime candidates for these groups and finally, forgive the cliche, cults are just around the corner.
According to a study by the University Stanford a survey done a thousand students, approximately 50% were ever contacted by a cult.
Is there a psychological profile or characteristics for a young man can be attracted by a sectarian group?.
The main factors of vulnerability:
The high level of distress and dissatisfaction in life.
Lack of a belief system / religious intrinsic value (auto accepted and strongly held as an important part of oneself) or a smaller or extrinsic religiosity.
moderately dysfunctional family system
Syndrome "absentee fathers."
Lack of guidance, structure, direction , and parental limits.
Poor family communication, especially the use of double bonds by the parents.
parental conflict, permanent marriage. Trends
dependent personality.
Lack of management or internal proposals (ego ideal). Lack of adequate
self (super ego). Low
tolerance for ambiguity. Susceptibility
be state of trance.
Young people have characteristics that are exploited by sectarian group. Namely:
Idealism: All young believes that will change the world.
Ingenuity: Few young people know about the operation of destructive sects and to any questions are considered too "clever" to be engaged.
Independence: When someone approaches him and raises the possibility of changing the world, offer may be attractive. Curiosity
.
Identity: It is a stage when young people ask what we are what we want out of life? And the answers of the sects are strong, absolute and final. Indecision
: Any teen is undecided in the race is going to choose and which will be his future.
In short they are where young people moving. Many go through what is technically called the "right time." At that time they are vulnerable, there is sectarian member offers algo atractivo, quizás una charla, una guitarreada, una invitación a un viaje etc.
Cuando el sectario, que nunca está solo, observa que alguien se sintió atraído, recibirá la ayuda de su compañero y entre los dos comenzarán a seducir al futuro adepto. En primer lugar, se le mostrará afecto y lo más importante, se le darán testimonios similares a lo que le está ocurriendo.
Cuando el joven angustiado comienza a aumentar su autoestima y su seguridad , el miembro sectario comenzará, muy sutilmente, a explicarle que ellos se sienten bárbaro gracias al grupo y lo invitarán a un determinado curso. Si todo continúa así en dos meses ese joven stop being a good student, will end its relationship with the family , with the bride (if not able to enter the group), friends and even lose his job. In summary this young man has suffered a program Modification Thought, popularly known as "brain washing ." The
Modification Program of Thought, are used by destructive cults to exercise total control over it
individual. The objective is to radically alter the world view, the point of view of a person to make it accept a new version of reality and causality, to drastically reinterpret his past life, to accept a belief system adopted by the directors of the program and become a slave of the leaders. The success
a Modification Program gets Thought occurs when a person accepts the new belief and thus deny or cast doubt on their past relationships, or value judgments. For this to happen sects ran for a couple of months the following steps:
6. Language and clothing:
The use new words gives them a feeling of exclusivity and unity, but being a very restrictive language reduces the ability to think and analyze. In some groups continually repeat phrases or slogans. Moreover, some sects use a different attire which helps them to feel another wave to the common youth.
7. Organic weakening:
try to increase their manipulation through diets, prolonged fasting, a few hours of sleep and rampant labor activity.
after intense muscular work, is incapable of intellectual work and is in a state of drowsiness. Experiencing difficulties in fixing his attention even for a very short time on an object. There is a decrease on reaction time. The subject then has a greater ability to submit and obey
The dream meets a vital need of rest newspaper. Its rhythm is influenced by a sort of internal clock and the succession of day and night. It is necessary at all. An individual can stay awake a night or two, but if prolonged wakefulness, mental disorders manifested increasingly important, resulting in impaired memory , illogical reasoning and above all a total loss of the critical sense.
Most sects do not let his minions do not sleep more than 4 to 6 hours.
Sleep deprivation may precipitate a psychosis latent in apparently normal individuals.
It found that malnutrition, after some time, resulting in decreased brain activity.
The subject begins to have disorders of the mind which can lead to loss of knowledge . Loses all fighting and seems unable to prove even if common sense was imposed.
8. Suppression of individuality:
When someone enters a cult forever loses his privacy. There is a public confession, where group members have their problems, this creates a link, because everyone feels connected to the other.
The sect attempt to identify and weaken any resistance the new member, so try to quickly identify their fears, needs and characteristics that can help to provide resistance.
9. Authoritarian regime:
The leader is the only one who thinks and believes. Is prohibited reason or criticize.
10. Manipulation of sexuality:
Most destructive sects prohibit sex or escalate to the maximum.
11. What to tell parents that from the beginning do not know how to deal with sectarian child?
First and foremost is to not break the dialogue . There is a tendency for parents to come in conflict immediately and fight with their children. Grave error, the child is sick, do not deal with it, but close to it. Nothing
rebuke does not help, nor discuss. Nor is it helpful for parents to assume the attitude of victims, "and you pay all the effort we made for you."
is very important that parents do not ever give in to requests for money or extortion son "is going to leave the house forever." What give the young will go to the sect. The children
are who most suffer the consequences of non-destructive sects and only those that encourage sex , which also forbid are harmful. In the latter destroys the concept of the family, is diluted control of the biological parents and the sect leader goes on to become the new parent, while the mother plays the role sect.
The sect leader decides, for example, when a child should be punished and the parents not only remain at his side but also often involved in the torture and beatings that most of the time will be fatal to their children .
12. Author's conclusions:
In Argentina, these groups have proliferated and gained a massive unprecedented success.
Unfortunately, in many cases these groups are run by doctors and psychologists who have discovered that all they need is to impose some sort of organization and convert their patients in real slaves. Many of these groups that start with a fully commercial purpose, become the basis of new destructive sects. The
religious freedom is something that is not an issue in a democratic country. However, that freedom can not allow the devotee and the group deprive their children of the right to grow and develop as normal children (under the supervision, training, support and protection of their own parents). Children should have the right to receive appropriate medical care and a decent education, as well also receive all necessary vaccines .
13. Personal conclusion:
From the foregoing it can be concluded before: First
destructive cults that have existed since the dawn of humanity, is not new as people think. Just now he is giving importance to the issue, perhaps because the most widespread. Cults
mention religion in his preaching, because somehow something must be shielding and generate some confidence in their followers.
We are facing an individual increasingly cold and indifferent. The lack of affection, lack of consideration for the other, well-mannered etc., Leads to this type situations.
Society is more apathetic, no matter what happens to the other or which way is used. For example in a job to climb the ladder, the goal is no matter how. "If I have to tread on the head to the other for ...; Total when I have a problem neither he nor anyone in my bathroom thinking ...". A clear example of this is living in large cities
All these shortcomings make certain people (mentally ill and spread all over the world), take advantage of these situations for profit.
The individual is not prepared to be alone, as well as selfishness and lack of understanding becomes a stress, depression and these are the "right time" to take advantage of cult leaders.
To lead such groups need to have charisma and persuasiveness with others.
"The effectiveness a political propaganda and religious depends essentially on the methods employees and not the doctrine itself. The doctrines can be true or false, healthy or harmful, it does not matter. If indoctrination is well led, in the proper stage of nervous prostration will succeed. In favorable conditions, practically everybody can be converted to anything. "
14. Some of the sayings of destructive cults:
"I want girls to love the old ones. They are the ones with the money . Do not be afraid to wear short skirts and plunging necklines. None of bras and panties. Teach what you have. It is the lure to wealthy men ..... Do not forget that you're like Jesus. He was nailed on the cross. To you nailed on the bed ......"
(David Berg, leader of the Children of God).
"From now on I will be your brain"
(Sun Myung Moon, leader of the Moonies).
"If your mind brings problems, Give it. I do not bring me problems."
"Jesus saves, Moses invests and spends Guru."
15. Vocabulary:
