  Perfect, you have the same approach as each and every other "sect". 

  Of course nobody is calling itself a sect, but everybody is "content 
to keep explaining, how [their] approach differs from that of groups 
like" all the others which don't share the specific shibboleth of the 
respective grouplet speaking in the first person. 

  And, of course, everybody is "in a preparatory period right now", 
except when they found another group which they might use to cut corners 
and find a shortcut to the "mass party".
