Everything Is a Cult

Schools are cults of intelligence

Sports are cults of athleticism

Families are a cult of similar genetics

Clubs are cults of interests

Bands are cults of music

Businesses are cults of greed

Governments are cults of power

Gangs are cults of inferiority

Art is a cult of creativity

Industry is a cult of logic

Friendships are cults of acceptance

Societies are cults of submission and assimilation

Religions are cults of beliefs

The outdoors is a cult of ecosystems

Living things are a cult of the earth

Discrimination is a cult of ignorance

Philosophy is a cult of deep thinkers

Meekness is a cult of peace

Violence is a cult of war

Hospitals are a cult of the ill

Suburbia is a cult of the middle class

Poetrysoup is a cult of poets

Everything in life is a cult, because people of similar interests or other various similarities find each other and worship what they have in common. People sub-categorize themselves. That is what the cult of mankind is all about.
