I'm fascinated by cults. Not the weird wacky ones as much as the mainstream ones, like mormons, JWs and Scientologists. I'm fascinated by the followers and how they give up complete control over their lives to follow other humans. I think mind control is interesting.
You have your own beliefs as well and I'm sure those beliefs existed long before you were born, which means there's a good chance that many others also share those beliefs. Doesn't that make you as much a sheep as anybody else who believes in something?
At the moment, I'm neither a Satanist or a christian. If I was to get involved in Satanism again, it wouldn't be because of any belief in Satan. It would be purely to start my own cult and take advantage of gullible people.
While you make a interesting point, I don't necessarily agree.
Yes I have my own beliefs but I'm not following anyone or anything based on those beliefs. I don't know anyone who shares the same beliefs as I do so there for I don't consider that as being a sheep.
being apart of any type of religion is just what I said it is. Even the leaders of those cults have to follow the religion or the followers will turn on that leader. The followers are there for the belief in that religion. If you went against it, the cult would fall apart .. So the way I look at it is lead leader is just as Fuchs a follower as the followers

I assume you're an atheist. Which means that you believe God and Satan don't exist. There are plenty of people just like you who share that exact same belief. In my opinion, that makes you as much a sheep as all the others who share the same belief as you because you're all following a set belief.
Not only that, but you also live in society and, for the most part, I imagine you conform to the rules and expectations of society (be it in the real world or the online world), which means you're following the herd, just like the rest of the sheep.
I don't know anyone who shares the same beliefs as I do so there for I don't consider that as being a sheep.
What other beliefs could you possibly have that none of the other 6+ billion people in the world share?
You assume wrong. I am not a atheist and I don't follow rules of society in the real world at all really. That would be why I have been arrested and all sorts of things many times.
Like I said I do what I want and not follow anyone. Life is to short to just blindly follow those around you
you are missing my point though. I am talking about religious cults and all members be it the leader or followers are just sheep..
you might find it hard to believe since you said you want to be a leader in one, but that is the reality.
by Zach_31You assume wrong. I am not a atheist
If you're not atheist or religious, then you must be agnostic. Many people share that belief as well, which puts you right back in the sheep category, according to your own idea of what defines a sheep.
and I don't follow rules of society in the real world at all really. That would be why I have been arrested and all sorts of things many times.
Well, whatever you think you are, it's clearly not working out too well for you. Maybe accepting yourself as a sheep would work more in your favor, because breaking the law is something you obviously aren't very good at.

If I was a cult leader purely to take advantage of people, then I really don't see how that qualifies me as a sheep, so I think you and I are just going to have to agree to disagree on that.
So if I'm not religious or a atheist I must be agnostic.. Hmm not everything is so black and white. You can not just put everyone in a label.
actually things have worked out pretty well for me. Just because you get caught doesn't mean you are bad at something. I never once said I tried to hide or cover up what I did to get aarrested.
what makes you think anyone would actually follow you anyway? I see that as highly unlikely if you are anything like you are on here. People actually have to believe in you to follow you

I hardly think it's black and white thinking. I'm agnostic and in my opinion, agnosticism is the grey area.
Whether you believe in those labels or not, they still apply to whichever belief you have regarding religion.
actually things have worked out pretty well for me. Just because you get caught doesn't mean you are bad at something. I never once said I tried to hide or cover up what I did to get aarrested.
You claim to have been caught many times. That's a pretty clear indication that you're not very good at whatever you're doing. Unless, of course, you intended to get caught...?
What things have worked out pretty well for you from being arrested?

They don't have to believe in me (not as some kind of Jesus figure anyway). They have to believe in whatever I'm teaching them and I know for a fact it's not that hard to get followers. There are a lot of gullible people in the world who are easy to manipulate.
