Fun fact: the Moonies have step by step instructions for how married couples are supposed to consummate their marriage, plus special wash cloths for your private parts before and after.

It can't be easy these days to recruit or retain people for a cult. Mad respect to the Moonies for making it happen.

I know your comment wasn;t serious but still... There has never been an easier time in the world than now to form a cult. Widespread doubt in science and mainstream authority is at an all time high. Probably the biggest recruiting tool though is social media. QANON, die hard trumpists, anti vaxxers, crypto junkies, you name it. Counterculture is only going to get worse before it gets better. It will likely take another 9/11 type attack before the pendulum swings back.

moonies have been working that grind since the early 80s fyi.

You forgot about blm weirdos, fringe freak weirdos, antifa. Another 911 type event will not cause anything to swing back. A definite line in the sand has been permanently drawn.

If you haven't seen it, the HBO series on the Heaven's Gate cult is excellent. Before I watched that I had no idea they were in business for a couple decades before the mass suicide.
