Xelebes:
There are several possible theories on the objectives of the subversion and how they were intended to be carried out.

- Create a violent environment so that the community breaks up faster
- Create a violent environment to scare people away from liberal religious groups (especially effective with regards to Jonestown, although some decade or two later)
- Create an isolating community so that while the community persists, it scares people away from groups like it
- Create an environment which subverts the dogma itself (This seems to be evident in the CEDU schools)

And there aren't many of them to start with.The only liberal church Iv'e had any contact with were the order of friends. The Quakers. They oganised a hemp festival one year,and we actually "burned the hay" inside their church. Pretty cool for a "higher power".

Although, I do know an ordained minister who ran a christian punk flophouse.Which was the home of all kinds of debauchery,
and hardly qualified as a church.

I can't believe people are still taking these crazy places seriously. Do you have any idea of the suicide rate of past members (inmates)?
