Are monastic orders considered cults?

The mormons. Freemasonry galore in that hellish religion.

Scientology should be an obvious one.
The creepy Turkish Muslim Barbie doll one too.

Jesus People USA because they got away with it and are still getting away with it and nobody cares.

Church on the Rock, not that creepy but again, nobody cares and thinks they're just fine and you're a bad person if you say anything bad about them.

Those oldschool Mormons who, once again, nobody cares about and just lets them do whatever they want.

There is absolutely nothing weird about Mormons - unless you're thinking about FLDS which is totally different and every member of the Mormon church despises them (and rightfully so)

Christianity is one of the largest death cults in the world. They see this life as a mere stepping stone to the real life in eternal paradise, with the condition that they follow the rules of what to do to prepare for death.

>>18118629
Mormons
FLDS
Masons
Jews
Jehovah's Witnesses
Islam
Scientology

Plenty of other random cults out there as well, can't ever stop small groups of extremists from popping up. Some people said the Moonies were a cult, but one of the family members operates a really large and successful firearm manufacturing business now. Kahr Arms. They were basically always harmless though. There are a lot of small communes west of Minnesota and into Montana. Plenty of splinter offshoots of Moronism too extreme even for the FLDS branch too.

Gulenists, secretive Islamist faction behind the recent attempted coup in Turkey. They have used their network of private schools to infiltrate Turkey's government, jailing and assassinating those who spoke against them. The leader, Fethullah Gulen, was chased out of Turkey on terrorism charges, but came to America to seek asylum in the 90s. He still lives in Pennsylvania, and runs a network of private schools around the world, including 120 charter schools in America.

"On Turkey’s political spectrum, the Gulenists were clearly political Islamists. It was their secrecy that made them stand out: Whereas most of Turkey’s Islamists openly resisted secularism through grassroots organization and participation in the democratic system, the Gulen movement sought to subvert secularism. Move “within the arteries of the system, without anyone noticing your existence,” Gulen advised his followers during a now-infamous sermon.

"This process should continue, Gulen went on, until his followers had amassed extraordinary influence. “You must wait until such time as you have all the state power, until you have brought to your side all the power of the constitutional institutions in Turkey,” he counseled in the same sermon.

"In Gulenist literature, those who will take the reins of the state when this time comes are among the “Golden Generation.” These people have the resolve to “cross over seas of filth,” meaning secular sin, while remaining pure in their intentions and thus bring about a kind of utopia."

Process Church of the Final Judgement, a British offshoot of Scientology which rejected Hubbard's science fiction mythology for more traditional Gnostic occultism. Although never directly implicated in any crimes, their members went to visit Charles Manson in prison for unknown reasons (according to Manson prosecutor and "Helter Skelter" author, Bugliosi), and they came in the investigations of both Son of Sam (David Berkowitz) and Cropsey (Andre Rand), leading some investigators on both cases to believe that there was a Satanic underground kidnapping children for Satanic Ritual Abuse and brainwashing people to be serial killers.

"Accused of being a "black-caped, black-garbed, death-worshipping church" with ranks of mindless "hooded snuffoids," they believed they were visionaries warning of the coming apocalypse. In the wake of the shootings at Columbine and with cult activity on the increase, this could have been ripped from the mainstream headlines throughout 1999. But at the end of the hippie dream, these were the charges levelled at one of the most controversial cults of the Sixties: the Process Church."

The Temple of Set was an offshoot of Anton LaVey's Church of Satan, founded by former Satanic priest, friend of LaVey, and Army Intelligence officer, Michael Aquino. While LaVeyan Satanists are "actually" atheists, claiming not to believe in anything supernatural (their philosophy sounds more like Ayn Rand than anything), the Setians do believe in the supernatural, and claim to practice ritual magic.

Aquino was accused of Satanic ritual abuse at the Presidio Army base, leading to a large scandal and a police investigation. Although civilian police claimed to have found incriminating evidence during the execution of a search warrant on Aquino's home, the case was taken over by military authorities and Aquino was never prosecuted. After this, he did the rounds on the 80s talk show circuit, defending Satanism from the likes Geraldo Rivera, Oprah, and ex-FBI chief and celebrity conspiracy theory, Ted Gunderson.

Aquino also wrote a definitive work on Army psychological operations called "MindWar," many techniques were used in the run-up to the Iraq War.

Gotta concur here. Mormons take a lot of shit about being weird but I was raised in the church and haven't been an active member in a lot of years and can tell you that even now they are some of the nicest people around. If you ever need help they are happy to do what they can.

I know they are out there.

they are pretty well hidden, that said I haven't google searched any yet, but everyone on 4chan keeps telling me they aren't real, which makes me think they are real.

this is all corroborated with actual physical (virtual, but still hard evidence)
just comb through the wikileaks stuff if you must know for sure

There's a german "cult", they break the will of adults but mostly children by beating them and asking "if theyre tired". If they answer by saying they aren't they continue the beating with wooden sticks and such.

I find it horribly terrifying that such "cults" can even exist without the government taking action.

Also fucking Jehovas Witnesses.

I've only heard a second hand account of that ARG. And I do not discuss anything I may or may not know about that group. I'm busy working on my own nexion presently but it is more work than I thought. Last two attempts failed. This time hope it works.

We had a cult in my town. Basically a Christian group that let their leader do a little bit too much interpretation of the bible. I even got death threats from one of the kid members. We went to school together.

But now? They don't do much now. Not that I know of at least.

>"I know guys! Let's tell the establishment to go fuck itself by putting up a NEW establishment, and give it ALL the power! that way, OUR establishment won't ever, in a million years ever be corrupted or start to only care about its own needs!"

Communist logic.

The ancient Egyptian god Kek still has a cult around him, with much of it coming from 4chan, ironically

Many old Babylon and Semitic gods have modern day cults around them

Many elites worship Moloch and Minerva, as we all know. They're cults.
