CULTAWARE is an Australian organisation focusing on the following:

1. Deceptive and anonymous recruiting.
2. Hidden agenda.
3. Mind control techniques.
4. Reprehensible actions.
5. Freedom — For Religions and against Religions.

CULTAWARE is specifically NOT interested in belief systems. We have no interest in a person who believes a chocolate frog can jump 300 meters. We are concerned if any of the first three points above are used to convince a recruit that a chocolate frog can jump 300 meters.

CULTAWARE has approximately 50 members comprising professionals and ex group (Cult) members.

CULTAWARE is not affiliated or associated with any other organisations.

We currently receive between 2 and 6 letters daily from citizens affected by groups. The collateral damage caused to families by groups is probably underestimated by the community. Arguably one of the significant problems a family faces when a relative (or friend) is recruited into a group is the inability of the recruited group member to objectively discuss facts about the group.

I would welcome discussion on this news group relating to the 5 points mentioned above and suggestions on how to get recruited group members to be objective about their group.
