You are not talking about religion, but a cult.

The 26 basic characteristics of cults

What cults provide is exactly what you have been looking for for for a long time but haven't found. It's strange that he happens to know what you missed.

The first contact with cults has opened a new horizon for you to look at things.

The cult's world outlook is very simple and clear, and it can answer all questions.

Cults try to woo you emotionally, and other members will soon become your "good friends".

You think that if you make critical comments, those new friends will be disappointed, and if you always refuse new friends' constant invitations because you don't want to be a rude person, you will feel sorry.

Cults are entering your life more and more, and gradually form a kind of gravity: it seems that it is easier to get in than to get out.

Even so, you still don't know about the cult. What is required of you is, don't think and don't test.

Your new friend will say something like "This is inexplicable, we have to experience it ourselves, and what we have experienced is completely another level …".

Cults have a master of truth or an angel of God, and his decision-making power is beyond doubt.

The teachings of cults are regarded as the only true and permanent correct knowledge, rejecting traditional science, rational thinking and rationality, thinking that these only attach importance to the brain, are negative, belong to the devil, and so on.

Cults lack a rational discussion culture: because cults believe that they have unchangeable truth, they think that all discussions about their teachings and organizations are unnecessary.

Critics within cults are framed, isolated or expelled.

Criticism from outside the cult is regarded as evidence that the cult is correct.

Cults always feel that they are surrounded by hostile forces, and outsiders are plotting against themselves.

Cults only know two kinds of people: friends or enemies, not our supporters, but our opponents.

The world is facing a catastrophe, and only cults themselves know how to create this world.

The world or its followers were saved.

The people inside the cult are elites, while the people outside are misguided. At best, they are the targets of missionary work.

Cults can do anything to achieve their goals.

Cults are distinguished from others by special signs or rules of conduct, such as their own language, specific clothing, diet, control of daily life and interference in private relations.

Cults isolate you from the social relations so far, because these social relations affect your progress.

Cults urge you to limit your sources of information to the cult's own ideology (no news, no newspapers, no literary works, only books inside the cult)

Cults assign you tasks and let you participate in activities, which take up almost all your time (such as selling books and periodicals, attending classes, attending activities, praying, meditating, studying together, and recruiting new people to join the church).

You rarely go out alone, and people from cults will always come to pick you up. Maybe you were asked to stay in the collective residence of the cult. Taking control of your personal life means supporting you to stick to the only right path.

Cults will also make decisions for you that everyone usually makes.

Cults either explicitly or implicitly ask you to obey strictly, or even ask you to give up yourself, because this is the only way to progress or be saved.

If you have doubts about cults, no one will care about the reasons for your doubts.

What's more, you will hear some ready-made explanations: the system itself is correct, but you haven't arrived yet.

If you can't make progress, it's only because you don't believe, read, understand, pray, meditate or attend classes.

Sometimes you think this cult is terrible and feel pressured, but you quickly get rid of this idea and try to get closer to it.
