Some cults are more mysterious than others. While certain ones try to keep their activities a secret, others are pretty straightforward with what they believe in, as well as what they require from their members. In some instances, such requirements can get pretty strict or oddly specific, as a list recently shared on Twitter showed.
User Degen Dilly shared requirements from a cult that tried to indoctrinate his friend who was volunteering at a soup kitchen. The extensive list of dos and don’ts covered everything from clothing, to parking, even playing imaginary instruments. It received over 2.7 million views on the platform and was retweeted by more than 2.6k people, with quite a few of them expressing their views in the comments as well. If you want to see what caused such a buzz, scroll down to find the cult’s requirements below.

The cult’s list of dos and don’ts was pretty extensive
Do’s-

Typically guided by a charismatic leader, cults often isolate their members from the outside world
A cult is typically considered to be a group of people centered around veneration of a person, an idea, or certain beliefs. Research into cults pointed out that since the early 20th century, the term has often been used to describe a religious movement of some sort, teachings of which might seem bizarre or even dangerous for people outside the group.
According to the study, the religious movements that are often referred to as cults can be departures from specific doctrines or a combination of several religions together. It also emphasized that some cults are not related to religion after all, and can be based on humanistic psychology or meditation. The research also noted that a cult typically has an influential charismatic leader and creates a strong distinction between members and non-members, often by categorizing people into “us” and “them”.
According to MasterClass, most cults share at least some common characteristics; these often include authoritarian control, extremist beliefs, isolation from society, and veneration of a single individual, which is typically the aforementioned charismatic leader. All of these characteristics create a bubble around the member that isolates them from the outside world and encourages them to blindly follow the cult’s doctrines. Not only do they have to follow certain rules, they are taught not to criticize or even question them either.

There are certain characteristics that can help distinguish a cult
An article in The New York Times suggested that there are currently between 2,500 and 3000 cults in the US, adding up to roughly 300,000 to three million members. It pointed out that the latter are often manipulated by cult leaders and trainers who use techniques resembling brainwashing that can evoke behavioral changes.
Hyperfixation on a certain person, for example, often completely disregarding any practical consideration, can be one of the warning signs that someone is involved with a potentially unsafe group or leader. Cult Education listed such warning signs, which also include dependency upon the leader for problem solving, isolation from family and old friends, and obsessiveness over the group or the leader that supersedes personal goals and individual interests, among other things.
The list shared on Twitter ticks numerous boxes of characteristics specific to cults. In addition to having to check with their leader Jane about everything from watching a movie to buying a house, it also restricts a multitude of other activities (it even prohibits people from enjoying a game of Monopoly or playing an imaginary guitar), which would most likely weird out anyone outside the group. And people replying to Degen Dilly’s post showed that it did.

I was going to comment on this, but I checked with Jane and she said I wasn't allowed to.
Jane starts an entire cult to stop people from putting the toilet paper on the roll with the tissue going under instead of over.

Not to mention the fact you have to be approved to even join. Sorry, but everyone is welcome at my church and most every church out there.
I know there is a lot of stupid rules here. But the only one I cannot figure out is why only African American men can't be bald. They are usually the only ones who can pull it off!

This is some next-level false teacher nonsense. Jane and her team should be terrified of the God they claim to represent. “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ Matthew 7:21-23
Yup. I haven’t the slightest doubt that Jesus will say, “depart from Me, all you who do evil” if they continue as they are, either. I’m saddened over what they have done and the impact on those they have misled especially! 💔

And yet, there are 149 people willingly following this nonsense. Some people seem to be needing fundamentalism, restrictions, and autocratic rules.
This is an evil group located in Spindale, NC and many of the followers should be in jail. In the US, almost anything goes as "this is our church and our beliefs so we are exempt from laws. and if anyone tries to charge us, that is infringing on our religious liberties."
I feel like it would be a shorter list to just say what people are ALLOWED to do...
This sounds like the most miserable experience on earth. Don't live, don't have fun, breathe only when Jane says it's ok.

But do not worry, Jane, I stepped into my dress this morning and only pulled it to right below my knees... absolutely no dress from the knee up!
Amazing how many of these rules boil down to, "don't educate yourself"
Like what are they supposed to do. Jane doesn't let them do literally anything.
Looks as though Jane is a very, very busy woman. I suspect that Jane is, in fact, the name of a rubber stamp.
What's wrong with Ginger Ale? Ahh, the cult leader doesn't like the taste. Gotcha
You’d need a seance to check with Jane - according to wiki, she died in 2011.
I think Jane might need psychiatric help, she definitely has control issues. I think I'd do every single one of those rules just to irritate her... what's the punishment- spending a week at Jane's place?
Must be the southern US. cheerwine is a cherry flavored soda (think cherry Coke) and is not alcoholic.
what strikes me about these rules is that some are so normal and work-a-day that you wouldn't bat an eye at them in any other context. Like #27 - " Don’t park in the spaces closest to the back steps. Those are reserved for parents with infants". .... And then you get the total whacko cult ones; Don't let your kids play with non-cult kids, Jane has veto authority over your buying a house or car
The bit about missing services.If his children were ill and had to miss church my grandfather would sit by their bed and recite the whole service including making them sing the hymns as soon as the rest of the family got home.
What small lives some people live. It makes me sad. Although I do agree with #138 toilet paper over only!

Amazing how many of these rules boil down to, "don't educate yourself"
Like what are they supposed to do. Jane doesn't let them do literally anything.
Looks as though Jane is a very, very busy woman. I suspect that Jane is, in fact, the name of a rubber stamp.
What's wrong with Ginger Ale? Ahh, the cult leader doesn't like the taste. Gotcha
You’d need a seance to check with Jane - according to wiki, she died in 2011.
I think Jane might need psychiatric help, she definitely has control issues. I think I'd do every single one of those rules just to irritate her... what's the punishment- spending a week at Jane's place?
Must be the southern US. cheerwine is a cherry flavored soda (think cherry Coke) and is not alcoholic.
what strikes me about these rules is that some are so normal and work-a-day that you wouldn't bat an eye at them in any other context. Like #27 - " Don’t park in the spaces closest to the back steps. Those are reserved for parents with infants". .... And then you get the total whacko cult ones; Don't let your kids play with non-cult kids, Jane has veto authority over your buying a house or car
The bit about missing services.If his children were ill and had to miss church my grandfather would sit by their bed and recite the whole service including making them sing the hymns as soon as the rest of the family got home.
What small lives some people live. It makes me sad. Although I do agree with #138 toilet paper over only!
