SRN Disclaimer
In today’s world, and especially in the field of World Missions, it is simply wise to anticipate the use and abuse of legal challenges on the part of those who either hate free speech and those who refuse to accept validated truths. Your continued use of the Spiritual Research Network (SRN) website and materials is contingent upon the following basic Disclaimer guidelines.
The following is our extended disclaimer that has been adapted, reworked and added to from a handful of discernment disclaimers. We have done this so as to protect our selves from those who might be considering legal action against the ministry.
Information within these pages is offered to facilitate research. Listing links to sites, articles, or other items does not indicate automatic agreement with everything the publishers of those pages believe, offer, provide, link to, or sell. The Spiritual Research Network (Chris Lawson's ministry) is not responsible for the content of sites and pages outside of its control.
The information within the Spiritual Research Network website has been collected to offer the public a resource concerning groups called "cults," controversial organizations and movements, and people who have had much media exposure due to their spiritual teachings and/or practices.
However, the mention and/or inclusion of a group or leader within this website does not define that group as a "cult" and/or an individual mentioned as either destructive and/or harmful. Instead, such inclusion simply reflects that website articles and/or research is available about a group or person that has generated some interest and/or controversy.
If this isn’t clear enough, we restate it this way: a listing on the Spiritual Research Network website does not necessarily mean that its publisher or anyone else connected with the Spiritual Research Network perceives the group (movement, ministry, organization, and/or related individuals and entities) to be a cult (or cultic), to practice coercive or destructive tactics, or to be in violation of any law. It simply means that the Spiritual Research Network has information on the group (movement, ministry, organization, and/or related individuals and entities) and/or has presented information about the movement, ministry, organization, and/or related individuals and entities, that are characterized by the standard definitions of the nature of spiritual abuse, manipulation, mind control, coercion, brainwashing, etc.
Spiritual Research Network and/or Chris Lawson at times receives inquiries from current and former members, their family, professionals, the media, or the general public, about spiritual abuse, manipulation, mind control, coercion, brainwashing, etc. One of the main purposes of the Spiritual Research Network and/or Chris Lawson's ministry is to help people escape from the dangers of spiritual abuse, manipulation, mind control, coercion, brainwashing, etc. , hence, the reason for addressing certain movements, ministries, organizations, and/or related individuals and entities.
All the information contained on this website must be evaluated critically, through a process of independent and individual judgment. Please note that there are links often prominently posted to a group or movement's own official website, which reflect their views. It is important to see what they have to say.
