取消編程

维基百科,自由的百科全书

取消編程(英語:Deprogramming)指的是聲稱可以幫助[1]擁有「具爭議性」的信仰系統的人改變信仰並放棄對與該信仰系統相關的宗教、政治、經濟或社會團體的忠誠的措施[2][3];然而這種措施因為涉及人權侵犯之故而引發許多爭議。發明取消編程這做法的反邪教人士泰德·派屈克(Ted Patrick)本人曾多次因取消編程而受指控並入獄。

解編程的定義是「釋放」或「重新訓練」某人脫離特定信念。[4]然而,解編程員常涉及有爭議的方法,取消編程的實踐經常涉及綁架非法拘禁脅迫等刑事犯罪行為,[5]這有時導致對解編程員的刑事定罪。[6][7]一些針對個人的取消編程是為違背個人意願而設計的,這導致了關於宗教自由綁架公民權利以及有時涉及的暴力的爭議。[8]

在1991年,美國邪教專家瑞克·阿蘭·羅斯因為和兩名助手一起對一個名叫傑森·史考特(Jason Scott)的國際聯合五旬節會成員強制實行取消編程之故,而面臨訴訟,[9]盡管陪審團最後決定無罪釋放瑞克·阿蘭·羅斯,[10][9]但這訴訟導致了875,000美元的損害賠償,而邪教認知網絡英语Cult Awareness Network必須支付1,000,000美元的懲罰性賠償,瑞克·阿蘭·羅斯個人更必須支付2,500,000美元的懲罰性賠償,而兩名助手也各需支付250,000美元的懲罰性賠償。這判決使得邪教認知網絡破產,而這判決標誌著北美洲新興宗教運動及基督教反邪教運動(Christian countercult movement)的分水嶺。[11][12]對於此案件,宗教學者约翰·高登·梅尔敦曾下過諸如「這案件使得這國家(指美國)的取消編程活動宣告終止」[註 1]和「這判決的結果……使得取消編程活動得以繼續的交通線被切斷」[註 2]等的評語。[13]詳情可見傑森·史考特案英语Jason Scott case一文的說明。
