People who have first hand experience know that
People Unlimited is an organization that supports radical life extension and
physical immortality with an on-going program of insight, inspiration and
encouragement. But possibly because of its unorthodox stand about the unlimited
potential of the human body to live and thrive, a few have put a negative spin
on People Unlimited, even to the point of calling it a cult.
This article will help speak to this accusation in a fair and balanced way
to clear up any confusion about the People Unlimited. People Unlimited is an
empowering organizations that has inspired thousands of people to expand their
lives. Anyone curious to know more can do so http://www.peopleunlimitedinc.com.
When a group is called a cult, it can be difficult to respond
reasonably, because there’s no clear definition of what a cult actually is. The
term cult is often used as a label to scare people away from small groups doing
different things. Very large groups are almost never labeled a cult, even
though it can easily be argued that they fit the profile. This is usually because
their perspective is considered more “normal”.
If you think change and innovation is a bad thing, then you may want to
steer clear of People Unlimited. People Unlimited promotes the concept to
people that they are totally in charge of their lives, and totally unlimited in
their potential, including the ability to live forever.This is not a
particularly cult-like message in that it actually encourages every person to
be a leader of their life, rather than a follower.
There are many other ways that People Unlimited defies the definition of
a cult:
1. People participate
in whatever way is right for them. Some attend events on a regular basis,
others on a very sporadic basis. Whenever they do attend, they are welcomed to
an environment where human life, and consequently their life, is highly valued.
2. James Strole andBernadeane, the Directors of People Unlimited, are extremely personable, and
enjoy having a good time with People Unlimited members. They are hardly distant, guru-like figures withdrawn
from the people. In fact, if you invite
them to dinner, you are very likely to have them come over.
3. Not everyone
agrees on everything – People Unlimited attracts diverse people with a wide
range of viewpoints on everything from diet and exercise to favourite movies,
and whether or not coffee is good for you. What they do tend to agree on is
that physical immortality makes sense.
4. Service in the
community – People Unlimited is not an isolated organization. It is involved in
the Phoenix community, including volunteering at and supporting Tumble weed Youth Center for homeless teenagers and other great causes.
5. Originality is
encouraged -- Members tend to very openly articulate their uniqueness in every
way from personal expression to artistic performance.People are encouraged to
dress well in a manner that suits their personal tastes, without regard to
conforming to some group norm.
