Cult Information Agency |
Cult Information Agency
Generic term. Much information about cults is provided by anticult and countercult organizations.
Other organizations (claim to) take a more neutral approach, working much like consumer information or consumer protection agencies. Apologetics Index uses the term "cult information agency" to denote such organizations. Keep in mind, though, that there is a nuance between "consumer information" and "consumer protection." The former lets you know what's available (e.g. a travel brochure). The latter tells you what not to miss, and what to avoid (e.g. a travel guide).
