I don't think judging people because they have had positive experiences witb therapy is very fair. Doing so implies that one knows more about another's situation than the people involved.
Try looking at the debate from another prespective. Many people people have had back surgery, for example, and benefitted greatly from it. Others had nothing but problems following the same surgery. It doesn't mean all people will or won't benefit from back surgery, however. What will make the difference is the competency of the surgeon, the root cause of pain or injury (which doctors often don't know or get wrong), a patients overall physical health going into surgery, individual resilience, compliance with recovery protocol, and so on and so on.
Point being, people's perspectives are largely based on their own experiences and rarely represent an absolute truth. It's ones own truth, and your use of the service is often based on this, as it should be. However, implying that people with different opinions (that are as strong as yours) are in denial or somehow being victimized may be as "cultish" as those you claim to be.
