Piercing the Religious Veil of the So-Called Cults Since the horror of Jonestown, religious cults have been a frequent sub- ject of somewhat speculative debate. Federal and state governments, and private groups alike have undertaken exhaustive studies of these "cults" in order to monitor and sometimes regulate their activities, and to publicize their often questionable tenets and practices. The author offers a compre- hensive overview of these studies, concentrating on such areas as recruit- ment, indoctrination, deprogramming, fund raising, and tax exemption and evasion. Additionally, the author summarizes related news events and profiles to illustrate these observations,and to provide the stimulusfor further thought and analysis as to the impact these occurrences may have on the future of religion and religiousfreedom. I. INTRODUCTION An analysis of public opinion would likely reveal that the exist- ence of religious cults' is a relatively new phenomenon, but his- torians, social scientists and students of religion alike are quick to point out that such groups, though cyclical in nature, have simi- 2 larly prospered and have encountered adversity for centuries.

  • B. Taxation of Revoked Tax-Exempt Organizations
    B. TAXATION OF REVOKED TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATIONS: THE SYNANON CASE 1. Background When attorney Paul Morantz discovered the hard way that a four-foot rattlesnake was residing in his mailbox one day in October 1978, he had more pressing concerns than to wonder about the possible income tax implications of the event. Although he immediately might have suspected that his representation of two former Synanon members in a lawsuit against the Synanon Church, then recognized as an IRC 501(c)(3) organization, could have inspired retribution by the organization, he doubtless would not have foreseen, or at that moment much cared about, the subsequent administrative actions that resulted in the revocation of Synanon's exempt status, Synanon's legal attempts to regain that status, and its persistence throughout the entire period, both before and after revocation, in holding itself out to contributors as a charitable organization. The rattlesnake incident was far from the only questionable activity of the Synanon Church, but it was certainly the one that most captured the attention of the police, the press, and the IRS. As detailed in Synanon Church v. U.S., 579 F.Supp. 967 (D.C., D.C., 1984), in a 1977 speech called "New Religious Posture", Charles Dederich, Synanon's founder, had warned "Don't mess with us. You can get killed dead. Physically dead." Groups were organized to carry on a "Holy War" against Synanon's enemies, and Synanon had been tied to a number of beatings and acts of physical violence. During the summer preceding the incident, while Synanon officials were in Italy, phone calls were made to the United States in an attempt to arrange Mr.

    CRANFIELD UNIVERSITY Paul Morantz A basis for the representation, manufacturing tool path generation and scanning measurement of smooth freeform surfaces School of Aerospace, Transport and Manufacturing PhD Thesis Academic Year: 2016 - 2017 CRANFIELD UNIVERSITY School of Aerospace, Transport and Manufacturing PhD Academic Year 2016 - 2017 Paul Morantz A basis for the representation, manufacturing tool path generation and scanning measurement of smooth freeform surfaces Supervisor: Paul Shore February 2017 This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © Cranfield University 2017. All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced without the written permission of the copyright owner. ABSTRACT Freeform surfaces find wide application, particularly in optics, from unique single- surface science programmes to mobile phone lenses manufactured in billions. This thesis presents research into the mathematical and algorithmic basis for the generation and measurement of smooth freeform surfaces. Two globally significant cases are reported: 1) research in this thesis created prototype segments for the world’s largest telescope; 2) research in this thesis made surfaces underpinning the redefinition of one of the seven SI base units – the kelvin - and also what will be the newly (and permanently) defined value for the Boltzmann constant. The research demonstrates two underlying philosophies of precision engineering, the critical roles of determinism and of precision measurement in precise manufacturing. The thesis presents methods, and reports their implementation, for the manufacture of freeform surfaces through a comprehensive strategy for tool path generation using minimum axis-count ultra-precision machine tools. In the context of freeform surface machining, the advantages of deterministic motion performance of three-axis machines are brought to bear through a novel treatment of the mathematics of variable contact point geometry.
