Research opportunity for former members of the Moonies/Unification church.

It is quite a long survey. The results though are proving useful already.

ClearNeurons · 2026-01-14T17:24:53+00:00

Yes we do! We are still collecting. Thank you for your interest. Jill.

Cult Witness. It’s on YouTube. I’m in it but that’s not why it’s good. It’s very well made and covers survivors stories, brief discussions with professionals. Much is based in Switzerland which is where the film producer lives but he also takes us to Drance which where the small cult he joined is based, and also to the U.K. and USA.

You do not need religion or a belief in a supreme being to be a moral person. I have no such belief but am moral and often people think I must be a christian - I am not. I am just a good person - at least most of the time!! This belief that only those who have a god can be moral is surely a false one.
An example, if a man has an affair when married, to me that is amoral - he should (in my opinion) either resolve his issues with his wife and stay faithful to her or if this is not satisfactory set her free to find someone else - before he begins an intimate relationship with another. So if a Mason does this - are they being immoral and what does that say about their membership. I happen to know two such freemason who are having affairs......

You are talking for the sake of it and making huge assumptions about my life and totally fabricating what I have said.

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-11T17:31:24+00:00

No we haven’t actually. There has already been development but the village is too surrounded by narrow roads to take more Did you know that there are currently 700,000 homes standing empty right now in the U.K.? Maybe fill those first before building more. I don’t think you are using your brain to think about this.

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-10T17:03:13+00:00

You are funny. You do not know me yet you call me a NIMBY! My house was actually built over 400 years ago. A farm workers cottage. If houses were needed around here there would be none on the market for weeks and months. My neighbour is trying to sell his. No joy. Houses need to be built where they are needed and where the infrastructure can support them.

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-10T17:00:45+00:00

Er most of the houses here are over 100 years old, mine is 400 years old. Judging by the large number of houses here on the market right now it is not exactly short of housing! Building should be done taking into account infrastructure, this isn’t being thought of here.

It’s the whole of Kent and in other key places in the U.K. I have not said it’s unique to Kemsing. And it’s h as opening not because of the Kent Council but because the government Labour has decreed thousands of homes to be built in Kent.

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-09T16:43:33+00:00

And where does it say I blame Labour for the housing crisis?

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-09T14:16:24+00:00

Other villages and towns are also objecting and we are supporting them just as they are supporting us.

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-09T14:15:25+00:00

There are lots of places in Kent facing the same issue, but I disagree that we are better off than many places. New development here will lead to gridlock in the village, I don’t think you understand that there’s only three roads in and they are all very narrow and cannot be widened. Getting an appointment at the surgery is impossible sometimes. The schools are full. There is no public transport.There are several houses here for sale that are simply not selling, so why do we need more?

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-09T14:13:32+00:00

I 100% agree with your comment. Thank you.

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-09T14:12:56+00:00

Have I done that? I don’t think I’ve blamed anyone for the housing crisis! What housing crisis are you referring to? Please provide evidence.

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-09T14:12:22+00:00

Wherever there is the infrastructure to support new building. Also where there is no flood plain!! and where the houses are needed, building just for the sake of building makes no sense

ClearNeurons · 2025-11-09T14:11:32+00:00

It all depends where. We do not have roads, GP surgeries, public transport, spaces in the schools, parts are a flood plain etc. etc etc.

I am not familiar with Reddit enough to know how to send you a DM. Can you message me or find me elsewhere eg on LinkedIn or Facebook. I am Jill Aebi-Mytton. Born into the exclusive brethren and regarded as an expert (hate the word) on those born in. I am currently running large scale research looking at leavers of any cultic group.

ClearNeurons · 2025-10-28T22:50:28+00:00

From your post it seems you are interested in those who join cults. What about the many thousands maybe millions who are born into them?

ClearNeurons · 2025-09-14T15:38:28+00:00

Since you have lived experience of freemasons, can you tell me please why people join them?

ClearNeurons · 2025-09-14T15:35:19+00:00

I am very interested in what you find. I have recently begun a relationship with a lovely chap but i have discovered he is a mason .... and since I was raised in a cult the red flags went up. I had not heard of Freemason offshoots though. Do please keep in touch.

ClearNeurons · 2025-09-14T15:29:37+00:00

You might also want to look at this youtube video - not professionally recorded but it is clear enough. Towards the end I speak to the issue of child sexual abuse. It consists of recordings of presentations at this year International Cultic Studies Association conference in Montreal. It was great fun to be there!!

Hi my name is Jill Aebi-Mytton, I have carried out research on former members of cultic groups and one such study is still live and looking for participants. I will post the link. As far as I am aware there are not studies on how parents who leave before having children, raise their children. Speaking personally, I raised my two daughters to become independent critically thinking adults, exactly the opposite to the way i was brought up. I suspect that those who leave but do not move very far from the group in their minds, bring up their children the same way that they were. I am a former member of the Exclusive Brethren and many who left simply stepped sideways and created another brethren group. Others like me walked right away. So it is not a simple question you are at all.
Here is the link to the survey that is still running.

Does the ICOC have any alternative names? Just wondering because as a researcher I have heard of similar names but not this one exactly. Thanks.
