Well I've joined worse cults in my times. The Navy comes to mind of course. A pseudo homoerotic bureaucratic death cult who worshiped Behemoth, the American Maritime God of Vegence. A A bloated fat octopus God. It's ten thousand iron tentacles cling to the globe. Suck dry the oceans through its pores and convets saltwater into blood. Each ship a steel saint in its panthenon. Each recruit a living, working human sacrifice.
Along those line I have also been an acolyte of Levithan International-"For one singeth we". Wherein the initiate is first stripped of his emotional identity. This is a haggling process and the recruit comes in and lays his dreams down on the sacrifical altar. Next the servitor priest negiotiates a monetary compensation to trade the dream for the initiates loyalty. Once a number is reached their in. The initiate get to wear the silk hang mans noose from their neck, symbolising that (s)he is in a state between life & death, in other words a zombie! The Great God Levithan feeds on time. Not just anytime but OVERTIME - the time of the Initiate.
There were my years when I was a member of a primal urban cult known as the 'Scene'. This cult reveled in the eccentricities of individual expression and, occasionally, engaging in the rheotoric of a vague & undefined social revolution. It is a hydra cult, one that is constantly cutting its own head off to grow two more. It rituals involve a voluntary form of social ostrichisation, and can include tatoos, head shaving, elaborate hair styles to induce intercult mating, piercings as well as scarification, bondage & various forms of pleasure-
torture. The dilema to the SCENE cult can be summed up as following. Those that don't join when they're young have no heart. Those that don't quit when they're older have no sense.
There is of course another cult. But of that I am forbiden from speaking. Which puts me in some kind of Wittgensteinian paradox of 'prohibiting to speak about that about which we cannot speak'. Blindfolds, handshakes & Magick oh my!

The Awakening of the Forest

Jehovah buried,Satan dead,
do fearers worship Much and Quick;
badness not being felt as bad,
itself thinks goodness what is meek;
obey says toc,submit says tic,
Eternity's a Five Year Plan:
if Joy with Pain shall hand in hock
who dares to call himself a man?
go dreamless knaves on Shadows fed,
your Harry's Tom,your Tom is Dick;
while Gadgets murder squack and add,
the cult of Same is all the chic;
by instruments,both span and spic,
are justly measured Spic and Span:
to kiss the mike if Jew turn kike
who dares to call himself a man?
loudly for Truth have liars pled,click;
where Boobs are holy,poets mad,
illustrious punks of Progress shriek;
when Souls are outlawed,Hearts are sick,
Hearts being sick,Minds nothing can:
if Hate's a game and Love's a fuck
who dares to call himself a man?
King Christ,this world is all aleak;
and lifepreservers there are none:
and waves which only He may walk
Who dares to call Himself a man.

The Unitarian-Universalist Church is about as open-minded as you can possibly get, to the point that they don't really have any doctrines per se, just a set of loose guidelines under which people of different beliefs can interact in relative harmony. They were among the first churches to recognize women pastors and gay marriage, and generally support any number of left wing causes. This often vague open-mindedness leads many to question whether it's even a religion at all. Never piss a Unitarian off, though, or they'll burn a question mark in your front lawn. |

'prohibiting to speak about that about which we cannot speak'

..pst Jack wake up you got a comment!...
zzz..huh..wha.huh...oh hi Bookmonkey. Ahem. Yes. Yes That's a very good question. I was almost a member of the Little Five Points chapter of Fight Club, but I had to have the sponsorship of at least three imaginary friends... and Chauncy the Invisible Boxing Badger did'nt think I had the 'Right'Stuff. Whippersnappers(?): Nope. They're nice people but i've never been to one of their events. Crossdressers(?) I remember one night going glam for a SR event and having some lady friends doll me up. The result: I look like my Mom in make up. A little weird. That and I just don't have the body for that sorta thing. Sorry I'm more Iggy Pop than David Bowie, a participator rather than a player.
I was refering to when I joined the Lodge Abraxas in the early 90's. Hence Blindfolds, handshakes & Magick oh my!

As religious sects go, the Baha'i are very benign. They believe that all of the main prophets of the major world religions were sent by the same God, and that their prophet, Baha'u'llah, was only the most recent. Members of this faith promote racial harmony, ecumenicalism, and world peace. Their desire for harmony means that they abhore debate, however, and questioning doctrine is generally frowned upon.
