Was Mormonism just the wrong cult for you?

Maybe the problem wasn't that you were in a cult. Maybe you were just in the wrong cult for you. ;)

<like> Creative and fun.

Kind of takes you back a minute at the idea---Hey, that's been my problem all along! I'm in the wrong cult and just need to choose a different one.

I think my computer was blocking it.

But, yeah, maybe I should look for a coffee or chocolate cult. I can only imagine how wonderful it would be to go to worship services.

Re: Was Mormonism just the wrong cult for you?

Given the questions, I don't think there is a cult for me....

... I couldn't answer four of the questions because none of the answers applied to me AT ALL---not even in a sense where I could "guess" an answer that MIGHT apply to me (maybe in some alternate universe??

Does this mean I'm cult-proof?? ;)

I was the same way, I don't waste money on any of that stuff. I wonder what they based these questions off of?

Re: Was Mormonism just the wrong cult for you?

My coffee cult meets just about every morning at Good Earth Coffee House....everyone is more than equal, no membership requirements, no rules & ladies are welcome...so may be it's not quite ready for cult status.

Re: Was Mormonism just the wrong cult for you?

When I left Mormonism, dissatisfied with their lack if cult power, I realized I needed a real WOWSER of a cult, I found a really lively one, and now I am cult happy! :)

Darn it!!

;)

And here I thought I was going to have the opportunity to vicariously experience a lively, real WOWSER of a cult!!

(I was ALREADY trying to imagine what you might say...and I have a VERY vivid imagination!!)

:D :D

Do you know that I have been studying the temple carvings in Khajuraho since I was about ten or eleven?

My aunt had many unusual and wonderful books...and among them was a photo-study of Khajuraho.

I learned a great deal from those photos!! (And, at that age, developed a great many questions, too!!)

Some of those questions STILL have not been answered!!

:D :D

I have a feeling I definitely can help in this area of questioning! Esoteric tantra is one of my areas of expertise! I;ll bring the Shiva, you bring the Shakti, and we'll churn an ocean of amrita out of spirit and breath.

Esoteric tantra, now there's a fun cult, babe. Happy to introduce you...

I got "Scientology". Twice. :facepalm:

Answering with 2 completely different sets of answers. All answers applied to me though.

I call shenanigans on this crap.

Re: Was Mormonism just the wrong cult for you?

This reminds me of the essay by Pannapacker called "Is Academia a Cult?" I think it is. Many academic conventions and hierarchies are so bizarre that they could only continue within a cult.

I'm recruiting for my own cult.

"The International Worldwide Church of Christian Sciensology For the Triumphant Unification of Krishna's Latter Day Witnesses."

Excellent entry (pun intended) positions available, especially for winsome, starry-eyed, gullible young ladies.

I got scientology! Why would I go to full-on crazy if I just left quite-crazy?

Re: Was Mormonism just the wrong cult for you?

Apparently, I need to join the Illuminati. I think it's because I chose "30 Rock" in the sitcom category. I always knew something was up with Tina Fey. *cough*
