This is why I am a follower of ISKCON. ISKCON requires it's
initiates to observe the following sadacara: no meat-eating of any
kind, no gambling or useless speculation, no intoxication of any
kind, and no illicit sex of any kind. I have not yet seen any other
spiritual institution which maintains this type of behavior as
well as ISKCON does, though I don't reason why others can't.
These sects claim to be

I couldn't agree with you more.
What about the childsex-abusing
>"Gurus" of ISKCON?
I am sure that I know a LOT more about ISKCON than you do, but I
know nothing of any such activities. Let's see how much you know
what you are talking about--give us some names of current ISKCON
gurus who engage in the abominable things you've mentioned, and
please substantiate your wild claims with some hard evidence. Be
specific now. BTW, I don't think Jai Maharaj's posts can be accepted
as serious evidence, in case you weren't sure.
