It needs to be told. If you haven't written it down somewhere, I hope you will find the time to do that. All our horror stories need to be told!
The more of us that can testify to what went on or goes on, the better the chance we have of helping others. We need to alert authorities to this cult's kidnaping practices, past and present.
A few decades ago, inductees, parents or other unsuspecting victims of cult scams, didn't have easy access to information about cults, apart from the churches and the media. The public needs to read firsthand experiences and testimonies by people like us who were tricked into and trapped in these cults. The fact that we don't represent any churches or groups with "comepetitive" interests makes our information more interesting and credible. Thanks to the internet, whatever we share here goes along way and gets to people that need it a lot easier than before.
We'd be happy to host your story on this site!
