Resumen
[ES] Las sectas, tradicionalmente entendidas como pequeños grupos religiosos alternativos,
que se desprendían de la religión legítima en la época, van mucho más allá de las creencias
religiosas en los últimos tiempos, ya que no todos los grupos sectarios se guían por este tipo de
motivaciones debido a que han aparecido otro tipo de intereses diferentes a la salvación, como
el dinero, el poder y la fama que motivan a los líderes. Los diferentes objetivos se consiguen
mediante una reforma del pensamiento de los adeptos a través de la persuasión coercitiva, lo que
implica métodos tales como el control total de la vida de estos miembros. Esta serie de
limitaciones hacen que el adepto se convierta en una persona sin pensamiento crítico frente a la
situación. Debido a este hecho, aparecen consecuencias visibles en la personalidad del adepto
que condicionan la vida de éste.
