Talk:Cults in our Midst (book)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cut from article:
| What makes Cults in Our Midst so absorbing is Singer's ability to show the extremely damaging effects of cults as well as the lure that cults may have for the "average" people in "normal" life.. | ||
This quote is verifiable, but not correct. Let's put it back after expanding the article from stub status. Having read the book some years ago, I recall that it had NO information about "damaging effects of cults" (it simply CLAIMED that these effects would occur). --Uncle Ed 02:29, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
- What is the difference? Do you mean it had no actual examples? Or did the actual examples not convince you? --Tilman 06:35, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Expressions like discredited anti-cult "expert witness" (is untrue, see APA controversy) or This books is one of dozens touting the anti-cult line are not Wikipedia-like, and not NPOV. The part with studies by sociologists is not supported by sources, and if it is, it should only be mentioned if these sociologists wrote about the book itself. --Tilman 06:38, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
