Gnome Blessings, friends! In this episode of Gnome Talk, we dive deep into a topic that’s as serious as it gets—cults. Why do smart, kind-hearted people fall into them? How can you tell when a spiritual group (or political movement... or wellness club...) is sliding toward something unhealthy? And how does the Church of Gnome work to be the Anti-Cult, protecting your Sovereignty of Body and Mind above all else?

This isn’t just theory—we’re sharing tools, signs to watch for, and how we’ve built the Church of Gnome to be a community that empowers you, not controls you. We talk about the risks of spiritual manipulation, the psychology behind cult recruitment, and why autonomy, critical thinking, and a good sense of humor (plus a tall gnome hat) are your best defenses.
