The Cult Information Centre (CIC) is a British organisation〔 〕 that provides information and advice to members of what the organisation terms as cults, as well as affected family members,〔 〕 members of the press and scholarly researchers. The organisation also serves as a resource for information on controversial religious groups,〔 〕〔 〕 therapy cults,〔〔 〕〔 〕 and political cults.〔 〕 The Cult Information Centre gives educational talks about cults in schools around the United Kingdom to students about to start university education.〔 〕 == History == The Cult Information Centre was founded in 1987 by Ian Haworth,〔 〕〔Chryssides, George. 1999. Exploring New Religions. London, GBR: Continuum International Publishing.〕〔 〕 who had previously been involved with the Council on Mind Abuse,〔 and gained charitable status in the United Kingdom in 1992. Following Haworth's loss in a lawsuit brought by Werner Erhard against the Council on Mind Abuse organisation,〔 Haworth went bankrupt and left Canada for Britain.〔 〕〔 Haworth later stated that his Cult Information Centre received complaints in Britain about the actions of Landmark Education,〔 〕 which he described as being linked to Werner Erhard's est movement.〔 Haworth also made similar statements about the Werner Erhard and Associates course "The Forum".〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cult Information Centre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
