BTW--If anyone is interested rickross.com was sold due to the fact that the name Rick Ross is so prominently associated with the rapper Rick Ross. There was some confusion due to this and so the domain name for this site was changed to more accurately reflect the purpose and focus of this site.
This message board has repeatedly been attacked by groups called "cults" and the Cult Education Institute has been sued five times by various groups, including Landmmark Education, Pure Bride Ministries, NXIVM, Gentle Wind Project and the Church of Immortal Consciousness. All of the lawsuits were dismissed. None went to trial. And all efforts to somehow censor this site failed.
But information that originated at this message board has had a profound effect on some groups. Including a church led by Geronimo Aguilar called the ROC in Richmond, Virginia, Aguilar is now in prison serving a sentence for sexual abuse. Likewise Keith Raniere, the leader of NXIVM is now in federal custody awaiting trial on charges of sex trafficking and the Gentle Wind Project was shut down by the Attorney General of Maine.
The firsthand testimonies and questions raised at this board have helped many people.
The best antidote to free speech is more free speech.
And free speech, within the agreed upon rules of this message board, is what is happening here now.
Thank you for your participation.
