Ginni Thomas speaking to former Lifespring cult members (1989)

She apparently went from one cult to another. Her deprogrammers were apparently RWNJs.

3. people like her

have a desperate need to be special, to matter, far beyond your average human need for that.

Why she's drawn to cults, and why she exhibits such a "moral" facade.

4. I was in Lifespring back in the 80s

I found it interesting. Kind of exciting, but then they wanted more money. You had to pay more to get into Leadership. That is when I quit it. So I just went to their basic training stuff. It was OK. I think it was probably kind of like what my mom went to when she was younger, EST (Erhard Seminar Trainings).

I was glad when she went to it. It actually helped our relationship. But that was not a life-long thing for her either.

I didn't get any sense of partisanship from Lifespring, but that was so long ago. Things have really changed a lot.

I wouldn't advise anyone to go to either Lifespring or EST today. They really just want your money. More and more and more of it.
