Just say you're a messenger and you hear voices.
3. GO TO CALIFORNIA TO GET CONVERTS.
They'll believe anything over there.
4. FORCE CONVERTS TO LOSE THEIR IDENTITY.
This is essential! Give 'em new names. When you give your converts a new name, you become their "father" in a sense.
5. GO TO EXTREMES WITH YOUR CONVERTS.
It's hard to think right when your body is going through all kinds of changes, and you don't want them thinking right when you start preaching
6. DISASSOCIATE CONVERTS FROM FAMILY.
You don't want any embarrassing "rescues" when you're preaching on the mound, do you?
7. BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION.
Pick away at any weakness you see in their psyche. Everybody has some kind of insecurity, so have "confessional" so you won't even have to do any guessing work trying to figure it out.
8. GET SOMETHING OUT OF IT.
Money + Sex + Control = Power. You don't have to be a mathmatician to figure that out. Work on getting control first, it's the easiest to get if you have just a bit of charisma. Money and sex always come together.
9. GET GUNS.
you gotta be well armed for Armageddon, right?
Realize that you have a Basken-Robbins variety of what kind of cult to make. You can base it on UFO's, some obscure Bible passage, a statue of a fat guy, your dog (but you'll have to teach it tricks), somebody who died a long time ago ( Elvis, etc.), somebody still living (Jodie Foster, Elvis, etc.), whatever! That's the fun of it!

that is so funny. And so true. A great friend of mine lost his son, and his grand child lost her hands in the fire in Waco His name was James Riddle. it all started in a small seven day adventist church in the mountians of NC. 3 of his kids with there kids fell for David. His 2 daughters got out in time. His son was returned to him 3 years later and there were only a few bones. His grand daughter lost her hands at age 14. I guess there are alot of people looking for something and someone else will provide it, even if it is not good for them, and in the back of there heads they know it, some will still go for it
