Nikki, that was hilarious. I nearly choked on my toast when I read it.

Medusa,
This is not about denying bonding to the child, so much as preventing the mother from bonding with the baby. There are lots of 'I survived' first person testimonial books out there, where people talk about having thier wives taken away from them by senior members for several days. No explaination given, none asked. Cars being 'borrowed', or simply not returned. Keeping these practices in mind, what could be the possible benifit of this cult having regular access to a child that does not have a caring gaurdian? (Especially if it turns out to be a girl?)
Most 'serious' members sign over all of thier assets, including thier house and cars. This is justified as a way to protect them from taxation. In truth it is used as away to prevent criticism or defection. Also keep in mind that most of these things are true only for the people that are NOT famous hollywood spokesmodels. (Tom for instance has not signed over anything to them. Most likely it will happen in his will.) They even maintain seperate 'churches' for people, depending on how they are to be treated, and what level with in the heirarchy they are.
The process they use known as auditing is a form of participant enabled hypnosis. (A low level form of mind control.) The best part about it is that the participant tells all of thier dirty little secrets, allowing them to be blackmailed, or otherwise manipulated according to the information they gave.
