Scully	Re: Symptoms of Religious Addiction
	I used Booth's book extensively when I was writing an English term-paper about JWs when I was in college. The check-list you quoted is frighteningly eye-opening! For anyone who's interested, here's a link to my term paper (which received a grade of 97%): http://www.caic.org.au/jws/control/cultic1.htm One of my favorite quotes from this book, actually is this: if you cannot question or examine what you are taught, if you cannot doubt or challenge authority, you are in danger of being victimized and abused Doesn't that sound a lot like our "favorite" cult?? Love, Scully
