        I’ve been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower. You have more fun as a follower, but you make more money as a leader.

      To see if the ritual worked! How many times do we just pray and pray blindly? I mean, I don’t, but if I were to pray I’d sacrifice some rats to track my progress.

      Hum… The ritual rules require it. If you don’t have control groups you will be labeled as heretical and people will exile you from the cult.
