The last step in starting a cult is
assimilation. Assimilation is when an individual begins to adopt the
psychological and social characteristics of a group. To begin this
process you must begin to separate the doubters and find a
humiliating punishment for disobedience. You must lead your followers
with an iron fist and show them that your word is law. You must never
tolerate anyone challenging your authority and they must be dealt
with properly. This shows the other followers what will happen to
them if they even think about following suit. The followers must
watch the punishment for this process to be effective. Some examples
of acceptable forms of punishment include lapidation, live burial, ostracizing,
whipping, the stretch rack, removal of extremities, and complete
isolation from the group depending on severity of their disrespect to
the founder. There must be a book of rules that must be followed such
as the commandments by the group and anyone caught breaking these
rules will also have to suffer the consequences. Some examples of
rules for your book include never be late for sermon, never question
the founder, designated curfew times and meal times, and also a
dress code. Upon completion of these steps you will have a fully
functioning cult to use at your disposal.
