If I could find a cult where I could do terrible things all week and then go in once a week and pray for forgiveness and have my slate wiped clean and then convince myself that I was better than everyone who didn't do and believe the same things as me - I'd be interested. Ok, not really. Side: Perks

If they had a message like love your neighbor, turn the other cheek, do unto others as you'd have done to you, peace and compassion and tolerance and kindness, etc, then I might be swayed. But if they add a bunch of hokus pokus and fire and brimstone and angry judgment and persecution to the mix then no way. Side: Other perks
Years ago, when I was searching for answers, I joined the Rosicrucians. A cult that does no harm and largely keeps to themselves. Like any other religious group, I found "facts" hard to come by so I dropped out. The only "perk" that could get me to join would be believable "facts" that made me have FAITH. I have found NO cult (religion) that came up with ANY. So, I will remain a satisfied Atheist. Side: Other perks
