This post violated Google policies [????] and was only visible to me according to them. Lets see if we can change it so everyone can see SGI's dirty face.
SGI and the Scale of Cult Think with commentary by Kevin Richardson

“A group where critical examination of information and thinking for yourself:
1.is not encouraged – Don’t bring up any other form of Buddhism
2.is disregarded – Unless you want the “guidance of a lifetime”
3.is discouraged – Unless it’s about praising “Sensei”
4.is suppressed – They are fond of railroading and the bait and switch
5.will get you in trouble – Don’t receive any home visits
6.is apparently encouraged but actually forbidden – Just watch what you say.

Q & A
Is the Buddhist group SGI a cult or are they a recognized religious group?
Answer:
BOTH. It's a religious group and to many, it's a cult as well.
I grew up in it and it destroyed my family. To this day, my mother chants Daimoku over 3 hours a day, is in debt, lost everything and is a bitter person. It goes to prove that chanting WON'T change everything as they promise.

You can believe the Soka Gakkai or your own eyes and me
Some questions for you to ask your SGI leaders
If SGI truly believes that Gohonzon is found in faith alone, 1). Why have a Gohonzon at all?; 2). Why change Gohonzons?; 3). Why not have chosen an Ikeda or Nichiren inscribed Gohonzon?
Question for my readers
Why should something as corrupt, controlling, and deceitful as the Soka Gakkai be the only way to correctly practice Nichiren Daishonin's Lotus Sutra Buddhism?

Those Nichiren priests and so called Nichiren Buddhists with whom we have no use
Those who fail to follow Nichiren Daishonin

It can not be disputed...Shakyamuni Buddha of the Lifespan Chapter [the Gohonzon] is the Buddhist Object of Worship in Mappo
"During the entire fifty years of Shakyamuni’s teaching, only in the last eight years did he preach the twenty- eight chapters of the Lotus Sutra. Again, of all these chapters, only in the eight chapters did he reveal and transfer the object of devotion to the Bodhisattvas of the Earth.During the two millennia of the Former and Middle Days of the Law, statues were made showing Mahakashyapa and Ananda flanking the Shakyamuni Buddha of Hinayana, and Manjushri and Universal Worthy flanking the Shakyamuni Buddha of the provisional Mahayana, the Nirvana Sutra, and the theoretical teaching of the Lotus Sutra.
Even though statues and paintings were made of these Shakyamuni Buddhas during the two millennia, no image or statue was made of the Buddha of the “Life Span” chapter. Only in the Latter Day of the Law will the representation of that Buddha appear." -- The True Object of Worship, Nichiren Daishonin's most important writing.
