Please provide ONE piece of evidence, a statement or a pointer to a
statement where Nancy or ZetaTalk *ever* suggested any of the following:

- salvation or rescue or whatever you wish to call it would be given to
  a chosen few WHO JOINED SOMETHING or TOOK SOME SPECIFIC AND SPECIFIED
  ACTION.

- Nancy, members of Troubled Times or anyone who might find the message
  slightly credible will receive ANY ACTIVE PROTECTION FROM ANYTHING.

- the name or address or contact method of the "compound" where one can
  "join"

- that suicide is a RECOMMENDED alternative.  ("Recommended" as
  differentiated from "provide sympathy to someone else" who might
  contemplate that alternative given the dire circumstances.  I mean
  terminal illness patients and the elderly also consider suicide, not
  always irrationally.)

- leaving one's family, friends or obligations behind is required or
  recommended.

If you are going to call ZetaTalk a cult, back it up!
