Let's take a look at some of the fundamental flaws of this latest attempt to
form a cult:
The Handbook of Were Cult #281 starts as follows:
"Therianthropes are few in this world--whatever it is that makes us the way
we are, isn't an everyday trait."
Actually, at last count there were something just over 10,000 documented and
archived weres. From those, almost 90% claim they are weres because dogs
and cats like them or they can smell perfume in the perfume department in
Macy's. So, what makes 90% of the weres in existence today "weres" is mostly
everyday traits that they have used to validate their wereness.
Your opening line is nice from a "I wish I were special" viewpoint, but
other than that it holds no water.
Next line:
"We tend to feel alienated, and we feel a pressure to conform--to try to be
more like those other humans around us who don't share our peculiarities.
But while we are few, we are not alone. Though other weres may not be in our
geographic region, they are out there, in our hearts and minds. By creating
a pack founded on common purpose more than proximety, we keep them in our
thoughts when otherwise we might forget: We remember that we are not alone."
You might try using the phrase "We are not alone" more often, actually, if
you don't mind me saying, "You are not alone" was the big joke page at TCT
about a year ago. As soon as I posted that huge graphic proclaiming "you
have finally found your true place in the world, welcome Bretheren", I got
tons of emails thanking me for finally seeing the light and turning my
thinking around to what it meant to be a Real Were. Somewhere in the world,
right now, there is a 14 year old laying in bed, staring at the ceiling,
mumbling over and over, "I feel so alone". it's not because he/she is a
"were", it's because they are experiencing what everyone experiences at one
time or another. Most of the world's feelings of loneliness are directly
attributed to depression and can be treated chemically.
Also, when you form a "pack" (the rest of the world calls it a circle of
friends) aren't you now losing that one quality that made you stand out from
the rest of the world? Aren't you now taking yourself from the "I am so
alone" argument and placing yourself in the "I am surrounded by people"
queue?
Next:
"Within is our wereness--that thing we could either treasure or despise, for
it is what sets us apart. We choose to treasure it--it is a strange and
beautiful thing, and its potential has yet to be discovered."
I'd like to rewrite that, then you tell me how it means anything different
to "weres" in general:
Within is my personality--that thing I could either treasure or despise, for
it is what sets me apart. I choose to treasure it--it is a strange and
beautiful thing, and its potential has yet to be discovered.
You've actually just described every sngle individual on the planet, you've
just used a buzz word to create undue attention to the group you are trying
to suck into your cult.
Next:
"Because we are were, we treasure the natural world and the living things
within it--not all of our relations are human, at least in spirit. Because
we are human as well as were, we can have a huge effect on the world around
us."
I know alot of people who do those things and are not weres. It's called
compassion and has absolutely nothing to do with being "were", nor does it
exist because of "wereness".
Next:
"So, each day, we do one thing, great or small, that affects the world
around us in a positive way. We pick up a piece of litter and put it in the
trash, we rescue a plant or animal, help a neighbor move, or conduct some
other activity which affects the physical world and makes it one small bit
better than it was before our action."
Well, I guess Bender can't be in your pack, he doesn't pick up garbage.
Anyway, again, I know thuosands of people who do these things out of
compassion, not from being a "were". This is all just more validation
crapola. I helped my neighbor move because I am a were. LOL!
Next:
"So, each day, we do one thing, great or small, that affects the world of
the psychic, the mind, or the emotions of those around us, to create a
better environment for ourselves and others. We do something to develop
psychic ability, or practice it. We lend an ear to someone in emotional
turmoil. We teach someone something they didn't know before. Perhaps we can
thus create a more stable, wiser, and more intelligent world for ourselves
and others."
I see dead people. Cloe might be were because she is on TV claiming to be
the worlds greatest psychic tarot reader. have you contacted her about
joining your pack?
Again, what yuo have described above, for the most part, is what it takes to
be a good friend, and has nothing at all to do, singularly, with being
"were".
Next:
"Who can join?
Any therianthrope is welcome in the pack--whether they have one phenotype or
many, whether they are "normal" weres or "mythicals" such as dragonkin,
whether they are soley were, or mixed-kin. All that is asked is that they
respect their packmates, and treat them kindly as they would a dearest
friend and family member. Forgive their shortcomings, and accept them for
who they are."
ROTFLMAO! That's the funniest part yet! Forgiving shortcomings and accept
them for who they are. Tell everyone how you told the Great Kamatu he better
not be who he is or he can't join. Hahahahahahahahaha.... hypocritical
motherfucking liar. Oh well, not to worry, you'll go the way of Therians
Campliar soon enough, just another holier than thou werewolf looking to form
a cult.
No wonder the Royal Family gets stronger everyday.
Next:
"When a new were joins the pack, he or she is added to the bottom of the
ranking list. If that were then wishes to rise in rank, he or she must
challenge the were just above him. Within two weeks, he or she must provide
evidence of some work related to the three aspects of the actions we take
daily. The challenged were must do the same (or automatically forfet). The
were judged to have made the greatest accomplishment wins the challenge, and
gains (or holds) the position."
Translation, kiss enough ass you'll eventually get to lick Winged Wolf's
paws.
Who judges these accomplishments and decides which one held the greater
value?
I helped build a house for Habitat for Humanity. Moonwolf helped feed 15
homeless people.
Who deserves to be ranked higher?
Just another wannabe cult leader soon to fall by the wayside.

A few years back she was claiming to be persecuted because she could
read people's minds and do amazing psionic things. The whole special
thing was brought up with her then. This is a person who wanted to be
special so she told everyone she was a vampire, then when the vampires
realized she was an idiot (Tebarr and flatline didn't help her much) she
claimed to be a psionic vampire. The through some process that involved
a 9 volt battery, some speaker magnets, and ome odd aperatus tebarr was
able to remove a large growth of psionic goop from her chest, and she
became a werewolf. You know, if I could come up with stuff like this I
could make millions as an author.
Anyway, as we can see, as each group was unimpressed by her she kept
changing her story in hopes of impressing someone. Some people have
personality, and others need to make up stories about themselves to make
themselves special.

Too true. Over the years there havebeen many weres who have come and
gone. It used to be thought that these weres just grew out of the need
for AHWW or were discussion. However, it is probably more than likely
that they just grew up a bit and stopped living the life of a lonely
angsty teenager. Of course, there are many who never grow out of that.
These are the people who seem to be defined by their wereness.
Seriously, how boring is it to talk to a person who can only make up
stories and keeps talking about wolves all the time. am not surprised
most of these people feel alone. Maybe if they cultivated a personality
they might find they have a few friends out there. They might also want
to look at the world with a bit of reality and realize those millions of
people who you pass every day probably will never even know you exist.
That doesn't mean you are alone, just that no one has enough time to
know everybody.

It is an interesting way to take something everyone else does and make
it special. Of course, everyone makes friends out there because no one
can know everyone in the world. But, if people could do that on their
own without the wackydoodle's (alt.vampyre's name for her) help they
might just do it for themselves and realize they are not alone in the
world, just limited on time and exposure. Typical attempt to confuse a
weak mind into thinking there is only one hope for salvation.

I think that sums it up perfectly.

I know many people I know have relations with pets. It seems to be a
fairly common thing for a human to desire to coexist with an animal of
some sort. Of course, the wackydoodle was the one who said she could
psionicly communicate with the animals, so maybe her connection goes
beyond the typical pet/owner relationship. Most people talk to their
pets, but I find that pets are horrible listeners. They never seem to
understand what you are saying, and certainly never respond with a
comprehensable response.

well, I guess if people want to think that werewolves are nature's
garbage men that isn't a horrible thing. However, I think it is kinduv
silly. How much garbage, moving, or rescuing does one have to do to be a
werewolf? How much does one persondo because they are a nice person and
thoughtful?

Isn't that Cleo :) At any rate, I like how this goes back to her other
cult ideals.

Makes me wonder just how much forgiveness goes to a packmember who has
to work 2 jobs to survive, and does not have the time to go do volunteer
community service. I guess jobless kids are the best werewolves there
are.

It is like a meat market in here with all these real weres competing for
some scraps of human personalities that don't it in. And some people
think that humans don't play the nature game anymore. They just do it a
different way. Some people are just vultures.

One has to wonder what will happen when the corruption comes into view,
and all these people have to sacrifice the rewards for their hard work.
It is one thing to volunteer with no reward expected. It is another to
give a reward for volunteering (It's called a job). People will get the
idea they worked for their position by picking up garbage, and what are
you going to do when the wackydoodle tells you she is in charge, and you
are demoted because you thought the tinfoil hats were silly? Typical
manipulation. A tried and true methodology for continued entrapment. It
isn't that the wackydoodle is pathetic. It is just her nature. It is the
cold reality of nature. You really can't argue to hard with it, after
all this stuff could be on her website don below everything she has
written and people would still jump at the chance to make it big in her
pack. It is called survival of the fittest.

The creator of the pack? Oh wait, that comes in a few months after
everyone is entrenched in competition. Of course, if everyone was
individuals one could choose to respect both actions. The real question
is would it count if I did 400 hours of volunteer work for the KKK? It
is community service after all. It makes ll those white supremists feel
better. Some people would even claim that groups goals make this world a
bit more stable and better just like is written by the wackydoodle. Or,
would destroying the KKK be a great accomplishment that would make me a
big bad alpha? Some people might claim that fits into the charter too.
Which people do we believe? Who's point of view counts? Who's goals are
we trying to accomplish in this orginization?
Who really cares :)
