Just something I've been observing over the last six months or so that I thought might be an interesting topic to discuss. I grew up in a fundamentalist christian cult where they believed they had the keys to salvation, the keys to the correct interpretation of the scriptures which in turn meant only they would survive Armageddon, the rest of us are well screwed because being a good person with a good heart doesn't count, if you aren't doing the 'right things in the right way'. Pretty funny huh? I've also noted having come from said background I may perhaps be more aptly aware of the dangers of such thinking among new agers. There are some who believe that certain rituals, practices, lifestyles are the 'keys' or 'secret knowledge' that leads to the reward of enlightenment and or ascension. Now the same rules that govern why that was bullshit within the fundamentalist religious movement apply with new age fundamentalist beliefs as well. Whe
