If you don’t believe me or don’t get it, I don’t have time to try to convince you, sorry.

Obviously it's a cult, but when they use this phrasing, they just give the game away.

Can you please tell me when and where? The Japanese subway gassing comes to mind. Anthrax envelopes in 2001. Any others since then?

Sometimes building my vocabulary here is fun. I know nothing about his company but I empathize with their PR people who no doubt comb the internet for media hits.
