The cult thang is a good method of "tempering," in the sense of a sword being put in the fire and then plunged into cold water. As Neitsczhe said, "That which does not actually kill you makes you stronger." I pondered the C word once in a story. It was in the context of studying with a spiritual teacher whom most considered a cult leader. And while I could actually *agree* with that assessment on many levels, the subjective payoff for sticking around and learning what I could in an odd but stimulating environment was worth it. Until it wasn't, and then I split.
