Recommend Me a Cult

Postby Saige Dragon » Sun Jan 31, 2010 10:59 pm

Well I've decided that my life isn't on the right track and I need some sort of group structure where I can quit thinking for myself. Looking at most mainstream religions out there, I've found they're far to accepting of new ideas and logic and none have some great big final meeting with 'Bob on floor 22 1/2' where by we take part in group 'enlightenment'. Christianity is old hat as is Islam, I'm to poor for Scientology and I'm not thrifty enough for Judaism. I'd also prefer something that doesn't end with Kool-Aid, something a little more creative would be nice. And weekends, I'd like my weekends to be free if possible. I don't care if I'm required to where a robe or a matching jump suit. Something on a farm would be nice, away from the cities too. That's about it... Have at 'er NSG.

Communism.

But in all seriousness, why join when you can make one?

Start wearing white robes and hand out fliers at college campuses talking about how you have discovered the true path happiness and all that junk.

Sounds quite the plan although Koreans have one hell of a temper, I suspect it's the kimchi.

How about becoming a Tea Party activist, seems to fit the criteria.

Making one is way to much work. Like I said I'm tired of making my own decisions, I want to be the mindless drone I know I can be.

I thought of that, but I want something more. An internet based cult just doesn't cut it for me.

Just take off your clothes, dance around a fire, and chant the following phrase over and over again:

"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn."

If the stars are jusssst right, let's just say you'll be very suprised with what happens.

Cthulhu is one of the less interesting Old Ones.

Finding semi-divine fishwomen in the south seas to fuck is a better Lovecraft cult idea.

Yes, I would assume that fucking semi-divine fishwomen is far better than being eaten by a massive cephalopod monster or being swallowed up by the geometry of his non-Euclidean city of death.
