Since the murder of the former prime minister, the "Unification Church", which now seems to have changed the name to "Family Federation for World Peace and Unification", has been in the news.
Checking the church by the Google map, I found the three churches --- I looked pale. After rechecking, I found that there was one church around my house.
However, I could not feel a relief.
-----
When I started my college life, I was thoroughly told by the university authorities, circle activities and teachers was,
"If you are approached by a strange solicitor, don't say a word, just run away"
You can find many information using a search engine, so I don't have to explain about it. In my case, my friend was about to victims against the cult religions.
When my two daughters started their college life, I was on the highest lever of alert.
I told them again and again "if you are solicited or are about to be taken to somewhere, call me immediately at any cost"
At that time, "Unification Church" is recognized as "brainwashing cult organization" that was more scared than Left-wing extremists
(Incidentally, I was the head of a self-governing dormitory, so the Unification Church might say "You don't say that", But I was a lazy head who had never tried the organizing, moreover I hated people in the dormitory.)
-----
Even if my daughters were taken in by a right/left-wing organization, I had a plan to go a hideout, argue and recapture them by force.
I had an estimation that I got to confirm my win (on the spot) as a crime case, if I received violence.
-----
However, frustratingly there is no winning strategy against cult groups basically.
This is because brainwashed people cannot be unbrainwashed by logic.
On the contrary, I am confident that even I would be easily brainwashed if I were kidnapped by the cult.
Above all, I know well that the robustness of my brain is extremely low.
This is clear that the fact that I could not make normal decisions during my diet.
"Once kidnapped, that's the end". This was my understanding of the Unification Church at the time.
Incidentally, the content is well depicted in the anime "Golden Time" episode 3, "Night Escape" (jump to YouTube, which is also available on Amazon Prime).
