Kingdom of Knuffel

ugh that's just the worse. like children are innocent. D:

@Hotarla:
Yeah, we could do that!
I'm gonna start arraging it right away, and - of course - I'll be the spiritual leader!


@Moi:
I think the problem with cults is that there is often some bastard who bends this religious or spiritual ideas to create a network of illegal work (drug traffic, prostitution, you name it) using those people he's brainwashed.
I assume there are also plenty of kinda harmless cults, because they don't do that kind of illegal stuff. But still look pretty creepy from the outside.

Lol Amura. XD;; what kind of cult would it be?

I'm gonna drink from the classics: I'll resurrect the Pythagoreanism!

Having a famous name on it will help, I'm sure of it.
Parents will think their children are studying the famous theorem, when in fact they are being abducted by my cult, mwahahahaha. (That's an evil laugh, in case you did not notice)

Pythagorean beliefs on the transmigration of souls are catchy, I would certainly use that.
Music was important for them; harmony & rythm will work to my advantage: I'm sure we can create cool hymns and give them some mythological background.
Pythagoreans also preached an austere life so I - their guide on earth - will help them to get rid of all their material possession. I'll keep an eye on all them >:>

Anybody wants to join?

When I hear Pythagorean, I think MATH so no thanks lol.

And this is why I’m glad I never hear of these things here lol. Sure, they might exist but I’ve never heard of them here in my city so I count my lucky blessings.

@Hotarla: But I am a Mathematician! If I'm gonna create a cult, I gotta make my role in it believable xD


Oh, victim-blaming always ends up sneaking in pretty much every controversial conversation. Cults, rape, domestic violence, you name it.


Yes, I agree that cult leaders are likely to be predators. Otherwise they would not care to lead a cult.
And some cults are definetely terrible (the one in your town) while others may be seemly harmless - but still those people are being brainwashed, and sure as the sun shines that their leaders are also taking advantage of them in any other ways.

But I’m NOT a mathematician! QoQ I can’t do math to save my life!
