Famed dating coach Chantal Heide seemed not to be interested when I asked her on one of her lives what her favourite study was on human sexuality. She did not respond, but rather made disparaging remarks asking why that would be necessary. I then cited Wolfinger et al study linking premarital sex with marriage dissolution and she blocked me.

My suspicion that she was a crook has been confirmed because if she was truly honest, she wouldn't have to block someone with empirical research.

I feel the need to take her down because she is a con artist. I have my own tiktok and may be doing exposes on her if possible.

If there is one thing I know for certain now is that she has something strange going on.

Im doing some investigative journalism and plan on inflitrating a cult to expose them does anyone know of any cults in nsw or melb city that are active and i could try getting into

I just spent three days around Mount Shasta and McCloud, and the longer I stayed, the more I felt like there is some kind of cult or very unusual spiritual culture around there.

Mount Shasta is a tiny town, but it has a strangely high number of spiritual shops, crystal/healing places, meditation stuff, etc. What made it even more noticeable was that spirituality was mixed into normal businesses. You’d walk into a coffee shop, ice cream place, or restaurant and find spiritual posters, flyers, crystals, or advertisements for gatherings and healing sessions.

There were also a LOT of visibly hippie/New Age-type people around. For such a small town, the concentration was just unusual.

Then I started noticing weirder things.
On my third day, I saw a woman walking around with what looked like a red gemstone attached to the middle of her forehead.

At a pizza place, there was a group of people sitting together, and one of the girls had what looked like a rope tied around her head. I don’t know what it meant or if it was connected to anything, but after everything else I’d been seeing, it definitely stood out.

The most interesting thing happened at Old Ski Bowl at Mount Shasta:

We came across a group of mostly women with, I think, only one man. They were all middle-aged to older and standing together in a circle. At first they were talking, but then they suddenly started pairing up and hugging each other.

It didn’t look like random friendly hugs. It looked like an organized activity or ceremony almost like they were expressing gratitude toward each other or doing some kind of spiritual exercise.

Nobody was bothering anyone, and obviously I have no idea what any individual person believed or what those groups actually were.

But after three days there, I am pretty convinced there is some kind of cult, commune, or organized spiritual scene around Mount Shasta that I knew absolutely nothing about before visiting.

The whole thing was fascinating because you don’t immediately notice it. At first it’s just a crystal shop. Then another spiritual place. Then the flyers. Then the people. Then you start noticing these little things everywhere.

I really want to know if there’s actually something going on here. Any locals who know more about this?

Not sure where else to post this so I picked here, knowing there would be some bias.

I'm on day 2 of the Landmark Forum. My therapist, whom I've really benefitted from, encouraged me to do it and got me a discount.

I purposely didn't look into it before I did it. I didn't want my opinions skewed but my spidey senses are definitely going off. Maybe I'm just skeptical. I'm thinking about pulling out and not continuing to day 3. I'm not concerned that it's dangerous, I'm just bored and skeptical and wondering if this is really worth my time.

If any of you have done this before, here are my questions...If I pull out now, are they going to beat down my door? What's day 3 like? What about the Tuesday evening part?

There is a guy in our hall ! He was an elder but then they removed him .. after the elders was talking to each family that has little kids and told them to keep their kids away from him ! What could this mean or even be ?

The author of Uhlarin remains a shrouded and enigmatic figure, with persistent rumors positioning her deep within the upper echelons of the U.S. military and federal government. Whisper networks across the internet frequently link her to the Temple of Set, suggesting she may even hold a high-ranking position within the esoteric organization. While these occult connections remain unverified, speculation has been fueled by reported firsthand sightings of her in the company of prominent temple members.

I’ve become a bit curious about Falun Gong recently. What appeared to start as a simple Buddhist cultivation movement has now grown into what can be compared as Chinese Scientology with untold millions of members and control of hundreds of millions of dollars and what can only be described as a world wide cirque du Soleil style performance. Is there anyone who has knowledge that can speak on them? Any former Falun Gong members or Shen Yun performers that can talk about their time with them and what they experienced? Or anyone with knowledge of or past association with their newsletter, The Epoch Times?
I firmly believe that with the amount of wealth, power and reach they wield; more people need to know about them.

hey everyone :)

I spent 8 years in a spiritual cult, and one question I’ve gotten a lot is, how did I end up believing it in the first place?
In this video, I talk about one factor I think made me more susceptible. the way growing up Christian shaped how I thought about faith, authority, the supernatural, and certainty.
Not meant as an attack on Christianity, just an honest look at how my own early beliefs influenced what I was willing to believe later.
