Hi " Friend", May I ask you a few questions and make some comments regards your post:

"Thanks for the welcome Mr/s. Mod! And no worries; - as an ex-moderator of a spiritual site myself, I won't ever be abusive, etc!"

Would you mind saying which spiritual site and maybe a link, as I'm curious ?

"I looked into Prem Rat when he was 13yrs… Friends of mine were attracted, but happily - I wasn’t! Over the years I met so many others who had got drawn into his sticky web. I am very close to some of them still… (more than I can say here), -so am personally involved in that respect"

Why do you think you didn't take " his  sucker-bait"? Why do you think you have met so many premies ( who actually told you they were a premie ) ? Many people have never ( knowingly ) met one.

"Mind control needs, at a minimum, two people: 1. You (the victim) 2. The Brainwasher. With that combination, all sorts of mischief can be begun! It’s so important to make sure that #1 (the Victim) is stronger and steadier, then #2, the egomaniac, can’t begin his/her work of ensnaring the gullible and lost person."

You are very expert about all this " Friend" for someone who apparently wasn't "gullible and lost" like ,according to you, most of us were.
