I think there is a cult farm north of my town.
I met one of the leader ladies over the summer, and the way she talked just sounded very cult like about her organization

Going on about love, and never be negative, but it was the tone and the way she said it.

Three. Get on my level. There's like 10 in walking distance. And that's the ones I can remember off the top on my head... There's probably like 30. My town has like hundreds on churches. Or it feels like it...

Technically, religions are cults. But those are the cults I'm looking for. Like what people normally think of when thinking of cults. Or what normal people think of when thinking of them, I guess...

wow reminds me of the town in Tennessee where my dad lives

not even a very big town but theyve got several dozen churches. Meanwhile some folks built one mosque so a lot of the Christians in the town flipped out and raised money to construct a gigantic white cross at the side of the freeway near the mosque

not sure if theyre trying to intimidate them or what, but its pretty funny imo

Idk how many churches we have, but I know it's over a hundred. And that's just the bigger ones. There are many smaller ones, as well. And new ones being built like all the time. But I am in the bible belt, so... And it's not a big town. Just filled with churches. Churches down the street from each over, churches across the street from each other, and even churches next to churches... It's kind of ridiculous...

I tend to think of druids when I think of cults. Folk who dress the same, follow the same beliefs and preach that. Not all church/mosque folk act that way but they are part of a cult indeed.

Not really a cult but we have some white supremacist around here. I knew some people were racist but I guess since I am not that these kind of people were below my radar. The idiots marched down the street at the tail end of some parade waving their flags and yelling. They had their faces covered. The crowd ridiculed them. A bunch were arrested last year in some big drug ring bust. Good riddance.

My parents told me there was a cult in the late 80's nearby. They had about 10-15 people. It broke apart because someone was stealing money from the group, but they weren't sure who. "All of them were pretty spaced out from drugs. The fact that they got this organized to begin with was a miracle on its own"

Religions don't force you to join. Religions don't force you to worship a human leader. Religions don't sow distrust amongst followers. Religions don't control you.

Cults do those things. Atheism is more of a cult than religions.

Disagree with this.
1. The average Atheists dont care who you talk with.
2. We dont have a leader of anykind to follow.
3. Atheistism doesnt force anything on anyone, except the loud minority, but Christians and other religious do the same.
