The real problem here is putting faith in the government to right every perceived wrong. We don’t go there, the Constitution requires the government to trust its citizens (1, 2, 4th Amendments). We especially don’t go down the route with children, relying on maternal and parental affection to get children to adulthood.
Sure, there are some scary stories about that cult. Sooner or later they internally blow up and go away. CPS is not in the job of ironing out cults, it is to help children who are in clear and immediate danger. And besides, in our culture, who would trust a bureaucrat to disguish between, say, Catholics, who under close examination are weird enough (my religion, btw), and some LDS spinoff.
