スティーブンハッサンを読む5

It took a miracle–disguised as an accident–to save my life. In 1976, after three days without sleep, I nodded off at the wheel of a fund-raising van and crashed into the back of an 18-wheeler. This near-fatal accident gave my family the opportunity to do a deprogramming. On the second day, I threatened my father with violence, at which point he broke down in tears and asked me what I would do if I were in his position? For a brief moment, I was able to see from his perspective, to feel his pain. I reluctantly agreed to meet with a team of former members for five days without contacting the cult or trying to escape.

As a devoted Moonie, I did my best to fight the deprogramming process. But the information gradually began to sink in. In the days that followed, I came to understand brainwashing as practiced by Mao Tse Tung in his Communist re-education centers. Robert Jay Lifton’s Thought Reform and the Psychology of Totalism (Norton, 1961) helped me realize that the techniques we used in the Moonies were much like those used by the Chinese Communists to make their people obedient. Eventually, after five days, I came to the painful realization that not only had I been subjected to these techniques, I had used them on others. I was horrified that I could have turned my back on my family, friends, religion, my life goals to essentially become a tool of a demagogue who wants to take over the world.
