Subject:       Cults and Government?

Just ran across this quote from AG Janet Reno. From a person of such high
power, these are scary words. ---------

"A cultist is one who has a strong belief in the Bible and the Second
Coming of Christ; who frequently attends Bible studies; who has a high
level of financial giving to a Christian cause; who home schools for their
children; who has accumulated survival foods and has a strong belief in the
Second Amendment; and who distrusts big government.  Any of these may<<<
qualify [a person as a cultist] but certainly more than one [of these]<<<
would cause us to look at this person as a threat, and his family as being
in a risk situation that qualified for government interference."

-Attorney General Janet Reno, Interview on 60 Minutes, June 26, 1994
