I am a member of Holy Trinity Brompton, where NIcky GUmbels preaches. I can tell you quite honestly that behind the scenes the knives are out. They are such control freaks. People who disagree are punished by being excluded from all social events, and can even be surrounded by bullies and physically removed.
The real church does not have hierarchy - there is no abuse of power - as there is at HTB
What lurks behind the seemingly moderate window dressing of the Alpha course is a full blown program of fundamentalist Christian indoctrination. Agnostics and fence sitters are targeted by Alpha because they are much easier to indoctrinate.
@sweetsweatyfeet Kind of like how fanatic atheists target the same people for the same reason. Only difference? With atheists society calls it "education" when they convince others of their reality while it's called "indoctrination" when a religious person does the same.
