Join us... come join the cultA friend of mine recently floored me with the admission that he'd spent several years in Eastern Europe with the Moonies. And he seemed so normal. Have you or your mates disappeared into a cult? Now that the brain-washing has worn off, tell us all about it.

CultsI had a brief liason with a lovely girl called Claire, and one of the unspoken deals when interacting with g/f's relations is that you have to atleast pretend you like them, in the short term anyway,
Her wee brother was the teenage metal head who was annoying to say the least. Always trying to be my mate by showing off, with his cheap Gibson, that he was going to be the next Jimmy Page. He was into Slayer, Dokken, Metalica etc.
Imagine to my amusement when, after an number of years later, I return to Hometown to discover him all "loved up on Jesus" and swaying his tambourine in the High Street, with his accolytes round him at his feet, all singing.
Talk about fucking evangelical! He even converted his sister and her mates!
They went all dowdy and plain ["only Jezabels and painted whores of Babylon wear makeup"] and he had that fucking weird, patronising smile, which he must have thought would convert you by sheer force of presence.
He will be the next David Coresh.
