I think it has always been a cult.
Much of the stuff Icke talks about his audience have to accept on pure faith. He claims he has been chosen by powers in the beyond to help the world. He is set himself up as a prophet right from the moment he quit the Green Party and started opening himself up to spirits on the other side.
The thing I really hate about this is that spirits, by their very nature, are not physically incarnated on this planet. They do not belong here, and they should have no influence here. Yet here is a man making a fortune from parroting what spirits are telling him. Of course spirits are going to try to wheedle their way into the place where it's at. They are jealous of us humans. Humans aren't in the spirit realm, certain of their everlasting nature. They are on the front line, living in a condition of ignorance that human life demands. That is why weak people who seem to have an aversion to studying the history of theosophy, which Icke's material easily blends with, are so easily taken in by this prophet who appears to have all the answers.
The point of human life on this planet is that, when it comes down to it, you have to work it out for yourself. You're on your own.
People who trumpet Icke's second hand work as if it is self-evidently true are simply latching onto something that, for them, explains the mysteries of life. Trouble is what good does thinking that the Queen is a shape-shifting reptile in her spare time do anyone?
People have been finding out about the way the world is run for centuries, and trying to get information out there to warn Earth's good people about who is responsible and what we can do about it. None of this information needed or would have benefitted by the insertion of material about space lizards, hallucinagenic plants or re-heated theosophical garbage.
Icke is obviously an agent of the New World Order/New Age, and is a great example of how not to live your life. If you are spending your precious time on earth thinking about what spirits reckon, or if there is spiritual energy coming from the sun which is a living being, then you need to come back down to earth.
Icke is leading us astray, trying to leave us open to attack from discarnate beings who want to get involved down here. That is why his forum has to be so tightly controlled.
