This Cult Scholar Changed My Mind | Interview with Dr. Lorne Dawson
Update: 2025-08-27
Description
The word "cult" gets thrown around a lot — especially when it comes to a group people don't understand.I sat down with Dr. Lorne Dawson, one of the top scholars on new religious movements, to talk about where that label actually comes from, why it’s usually wrong, and how brainwashing isn’t what people think it is.We also talk about how the Latter-day Saint Church has been misrepresented, why people really join and leave religious groups, and how media narratives shape public perception.This one cuts through the noise. Straight facts. No sensationalism.
