    S I G N S O F A CULT - Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, Boston, KY
    ------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------
    Resistance chapels in Long Prairie, MN and Mpls, MN where Fr Joseph Pfeiffer (& Pablo) without cause of members, suddenly and ruthlessly fired both coordinators and put in his own, so would have no push back. Father was heard to have said, he was going to shake things up and ruffle some feathers! Immediately we asked and wondered WHY? This was something strange and could not get a clear answer. We were told because he can, as he is our PRIEST, or its not against the faith or teaching of the Church, so it must be OK. These were not acceptable, there has to be more at stake we thought. Then begin search for that allusive WHY? The search turned up valid information from reliable sources and STUDIES to fill in some of the missing pieces of the puzzle and to HELP identify if any of them fit our situation or mess we find ourselves, none of which is of our own making or fault.

     
    Some WARNING signs of a POTENTIALLY unsafe group leader or leaders:
    Absolute authoritarianism without meaningful accountability. No Bishop or superior over them.
    No tolerance for questions or critical inquiry or thinking.
    No meaningful financial disclosure of income and expenses.
    No independently audited financial statement with transparency.
    No legitimate reason to leave the leader or leaders, its always wrong.
    Group leader or leaders are always right.
    Leader is the exclusive means of knowing truth and no other process of discovery is acceptable or
    credible and all whatever he does is right.

     
    Some WARNING signs regarding people involved with POTENTIALLY unsafe group/leader or leaders:
    Extreme obsessiveness regarding the group leader resulting in the exclusion of almost every
    practical consideration.
    Whenever group/leader is questioned it is characterized as persecution or disrespect.
    Argumentative, deceptive and fallacious on most all issues not agreed with by others.
    Seemingly programmed conversation, its not against the faith or church teachings, then OK.
    Depend on group/leader for solutions without reflective thought.
    Inability to think independently without group/leader involvement.
    Dramatic loss of spontaneity and sense of humor.
    Increasing isolation from family and old friends unless they show interest in group leader.
    Anything group/leader does can be justified no matter how harsh or harmful.

     
    If the signs apply, not sure when this all started or how far its gone but if not checked and exposed it will be very harmful to ones faith, much worse than preaching heresy. The last chapter of this could be beyond anything we could imagine. Many prayers are needed for those involved and thru our Blessed Virgin, the light will shine on this with exposure and put a STOP before its to late. The table is set with opportunity for a diabolic movement to take root with a toe hold and destroy all of us. GOD FORBID!!!! Changes and corrections in Boston, KY have to be put in place to close the opportunity. End times are close and SATAN, the master of lies, will work overtime for our souls - We must pray and invoke all the SAINTS, ALL THE ANGELS and ALL THE MARTYRs, known and unknown, that we will NOT be deceived with something that seems good but is shrouded in evil and deceptions -JMJ-GOD BLESS and that we all might be worthy? !!!!

    Are these signs gathered from your time at Boston KY? Or are they from other cult experiences you’ve researched? Just wondering if you are citing ‘facts’ or ‘personal experience’.
