if you go to church three times a week and that is not enough - the pastor scolds you, you feel guilty

If you can't afford to pay child support, but you can afford to tithe,
you might be in a cult.
If you think there's nothing unusual about laughing hysterically at a corny, prerecorded joke you've heard a million times before,
you might be in a cult.
If your intro to the Bible class spends more time discussing the crosses on the side than it does discussing the cross in the middle,
you might be in a cult.
If your New Testament has more ink smudges in the margins than white space,
you might be in a cult.

Oh, heck, let's combine them:
You might be a redneck AND in a cult if:
1. You pronounce the word "hover" so that it rhymes with "over."
2. Your suit is worth more than your education.
3. Your shoes are worth more than your education.
4. You've ever M&A someone without leaving your golf cart.

If you buy a book you already own because there is a new cover...
If the number of verses you can quote is higher than the number of school events you've attended...
If your retirement plan consists primarily of "believing God..."
If you buy and listen to music you don't even like because it's the Word...
If you are over 40 and feel the need to get permission to move/change jobs/marry/go to school/etc...

Thanks, Raf.
Templelady, I think the "spears and javelins" thing was the first time it hit my young adult brain that Wierwille was wrong on doctrine.
If you think it is okay to make ethnic jokes, as long as you substitute the word "unbeliever" for w**, ch***, n*****, or whatever...
...you might be in a cult.
If you think "unbelievers" of your religion are not worthy of your respect, friendship, or caring...
...then you truly ARE in a cult.

If you pray for a cute wife, great husband, better car, rv, boat, job with more money because it will HELP you MOVE THE WORD....
If you give your last $20.00 to buy a gift for a reverend who doesn't need it and go home and pray for the rent to get paid....
If you have a wedding gown in your closet as an act of believing for that great husband...
you be in a cult, girl!

If you make your kids smile for total strangers...
If you know what type of mint your minister likes but not your wife's favorite color...
If you buy a suit every for growing children IN CASE there is an event...
If you keep a pencil and pad of paper in your pocket in case you "get a contact..."
If you stand and applaud someone on a VIDEO...!

If you look at the first of IGOTOUT's posted links and your first
reaction is "that's not 'God's Blue Book'-'God's Blue Book' is called
'the Bible Tells Me So'",
you might be in a cult.
