MODERATORS
 

Over the past few decades, the number of Americans who identify as religiously unaffiliated—often referred to as “nones”—has grown rapidly. In the 1970s, only about 5% of Americans fell into this category. Today, that number exceeds 25%. Scholars have debated whether this change simply reflects a general decline in belief, or whether it signals something more complex. The research team wanted to explore the deeper forces at play: Why are people leaving institutional religion? What are they replacing it with? And how are their personal values shaping that process?

They ritualistically eat the body and blood of their god/savior.

Let that sink in.

Dooms day death cult.

Lead by Jesus, the dooms day death cult leader.

I hear he's a "good guy."

I don't think dooms day death cult leaders, make believe or not and I just mean a historical grifter non magical, are good people.

Well, they were in luck... he's only mostly dead. If he was all the way dead, it wouldn't have worked. but Mostly dead? Miracle Max can work with that.

Suicidal Death Cult

They are actively doing everything in their power to bring about the end of the world.

When you're actively trying to bring about the end of the world, there's no more apt description.

Death Cult Armageddon, great Dimmu album. My parents got it for me along with Enthrone Darkness Triumphant for Christmas one year but they wouldn’t buy me Diablo II because Diablo “didn’t fit the theme of the holiday.”

In all fairness, Diablo has an entirely different lore than Christianity, I can see where they were coming from. We want to burn Yahweh, not Anu.

Cannibal death cult, If you take part in the sacrament. That is, quite literally, internally perceived as ritual cannibalism.
