    There’s a short list of good cults that don’t do this.

    And here it is:

    The Church of the SubGenius (Praise “Bob” Best one, clearly, but I’m biased as I’m ordained in it)

    Discordianism (Hail Eris, our sister religion)

    The First Church of the Last Laugh (I know I know but you know you never know, our other sister religion, praise St. Stupid)

    Dudeism (practice as little as possible)

    Flying Spaghetti Monsterism (Praise his noodly appendage)

    The Universal Life Church (these guys actually give you the power to legally officiate weddings, unlike the others…for now…)

    That’s about it.

          I’m talking about the Satanic temple and not the church of Satan which is the Laveyan thing

            If not Church of Satan (LaVey) or Temple of Set (Michael Aquino), I may be unaware of the one you’re talking about. It wouldn’t surprise me to learn there are more sects of Satanism than even just these three, he’s a popular character. Since I’m unaware of them I will withhold judgement personally in either direction, I don’t have enough info to say whether or not they’re one of the good ones so I can’t confidently speak on that.

              TST is wayyy more culturally significant and well known than CoS

                Sure, idk what to tell you my dude, I’m not familiar. I’m more familiar with the one started in the 1970s (LaVayan) that everyone knows and the offshoot from Aquino.
