So,
annoying cultist bastards. In order to really understand them, we must
first review what makes an organized religion differ from just a really
big cult. From dictionary.com:
cult
n.
1.
a. A religion or religious sect generally considered to be extremist
or false, with its followers often living in an unconventional manner
under the guidance of an authoritarian, charismatic leader.
b. The followers of such a religion or sect.
re•li•gion
n.
1. A set of beliefs, values, and practices based on the teachings of
a spiritual leader.
(I
cut out a few alternate definitions above to save space)
Hmmm.
So, it appears to me that the only difference between a religion and
a cult is that the big religions disagree with the practices of the
cult in question, and that cults actually get to know who made up the
stories they base their lives on, instead of just believing a book older
than dirt. (Since big religions dictate what living conditions are “conventional”,
an unconventional lifestyle kinda goes without saying.)
Let’s
consult Wikipedia.org for a selection of major viewpoints of annoying
cultist bastards. According to them, annoying cultist bastards believe
in modern-day revelation through prophets, beginning with Joseph Smith,
Jr., and continuing until the present through Gordon B. Hinckley, active
proselyting (you know, preaching to you at your front door) by full-time
volunteer missionaries, and some people do not consider them to be a
Christian church at all.
Haha,
whoops! Looks to me like annoying cultist bastards just met all of the
criteria for being a cult; they believe someone who is still alive,
ride bikes all over the place trying to recruit members, and must be
considered false, or they’d be grouped in with Christians (who
are a bit crazy too, but I’ll get them later).
So,
now that we’ve established that annoying cultist bastards are
cultists, let’s take that as permission to start shooting at them
when the come up to our doors. After all, law enforcement usually goes
in guns blazin’ when cult members get annoying (I see this on
TV all the time), so since they’re not doing their job we obviously
need to pick up the slack here. I heard that asianfever bagged 3 annoying
cultist bastards just yesterday. We need to catch up! Chop chop!
Next
week: people who get way too pissed off at people who like bands that
are really shitty.
Edit
by Asianfever:
It was 7 annoying cultist bastards not 3, cleric had 2.
