I am surrounded by Calvinists.  They don't let you miss a thing.  :tgrr:
funnily enough, I still had one foot in the cult through 2006, but the cult's only concern was the change from 99 to 00. all possible mayhem was anticipated because of antiquated computers floating in space and in the server rooms of government offices around the globe, but they had no sense of fun when it came to numerological apocalypse.

Stop teasing us goddamnit, I demand anecdotes. NAOW!!! :argh!:
:lulz: I have never before felt like my association with a toxic cult has given me an air of mystique.

it's a bit surreal.

and now you're involved another toxic cult! When will this end, potato?

this is just a necessary background check. Sort of like asking your partner who else she's slept with. We just want to know what cult goodies you bring to the table.

sorry, my caginess springs mostly from the fact that I'm pretty sure anecdotes will drive people to run away screaming. I mean, being in a cult was weird, and being a former cult member also feels weird. some of the things I've said to people about cult life make them uncomfortable, or they think I'm making it up.

the shit's just fucking weird.

plus, it always feels more comfortable when the weirdness is shared in context with other weirdness, like apocalyptic numerology.

I'd be curious to hear about your experiences too. I don't think people will flip out unless you were a kiddie fiddler or something. We've got a number of people here who have either escaped from religious mind control schemes or have loved ones that are still entrenched.

And then there's those that are studying to start our own cult.  :)

Wait.  That didn't help, did it?  :(

I've thought about writing some of it down. perhaps I'll get brave enough. I don't post things out there too much because I don't need certain people connecting dots to me IRL and it does seem freaky, but I'm past the severe paranoia period of recovery  :lulz:

I would definitely not be freaked out; my ex-boyfriend was raised in a cult until he was 18.
