/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Mental disorders caused by sects are obvious and
long-proven. When injected into the sect the human changes the
behavior, indifference and aggression appear, a person begins
collecting money for the sect. In fact, sects are business behind a
spiritual shell," Armen Nersisyan, doctor of medical sciences told a
press conference in Yerevan.
According to him, the main mechanism to hold people in the sect is
construction of dependency on the sect, as well as the feeling of
guilt. According to him, the leader of the sect controls every action
of the sectarians. People involved in the sect lose their personal
qualities, will and independence. When a person tries to leave the
sect he or she may experience problems such as psychosomatic illness,
visual and auditory hallucinations, and finally a sudden death. They
may say they had seen God or heard his voice. People trapped in the
sect are not affected by medication.
Psychologist Karine Nalchajyan stressed that there were 70 sects in
2003 in Armenia, involving some 300 thousand people. The leaders of
these sects actively monitor the treatment and rehabilitation measures
by psychologists and psychotherapists and quickly adjust their methods
of agitation. In her view, the fight against sects should be
implemented systematically through combined forces of church and
state.
"True faith does not require advertising. And look, how actively
sectarians advertise their organizations. If honor our traditions,
respect our true faith, there will be no place for the sects in our
society, " Mr. Nersisyan concluded.
