This came from the internet from some time back. It has a more magical bend but could probably apply to any “esoteric” or “secret society.”
If there are other tell-tale signs that you think are missing, drop them in the comments blow.
10 signs that an occult/esoteric group leader has lost his focus.
- The leadership starts to think that they, and their group, are actually important.
- The leader starts to claim that they are the re-incarnation of a famous leaders and/or occultists.
- Their leadership takes a lot of drugs or start drinking.
- The leadership decides to pack in their day job and live off their students of their Order.
- Leaders start claiming authority from Secret Chiefs or Invisible beings. (or I’ll add a Moral Law).
- They ask you to give you all their money or want to shag you or your partner to assist your spiritual path.
- They start to become incredibly paranoid.
- They feel the need to attack other orders, personalities and systems.
- The leadership lose any sense of humor.
- The leadership starts to believe their own bullshit.
The list gets into each point and makes for a fun read correlating them to one particular group or another. And, I suppose, you could equate the list to any group: religious, social, fraternal, etc.
The best advice is that you should you find yourself following such a person or group – “trust in the universe that you will find new teachers.”

Sounds a lot like some MRF Freemasons or Knights of the North.

IF YOU THINK THIS IS SPAM THEN THINK ABOUT “OUR FASCIST GOVERNMENT” AND “LUKEWARM MINISTERS” DESTROYING AMERICA FOREVER!!
WE’RE A NATION OF LIARS…
When Obama signed the NDAA Bill on New Years eve while you were partying…America’s U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights were DESTROYED FOREVER.
If YOU or your MINISTRY is truly from God then you and your flock had better prepare for literal—HELL ON EARTH in the coming months.
My REVELATIONS OF TRUTH website will provide all the information you need to prove Satan is using Obama and our government to DESTROY this once great nation of ours.
The Patriot Act destroyed half of our Constitution and the NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) finished the job on New Years Eve! Here’s some of what its designers, Levin and McCain concocted in this fascist law…
“Snatch and Grab” means YOU and your loved one’s can be snatched off the street by the government anytime it wants you or your loved ones.
“Beastiality” It’s now legal for American troops to have SEX WITH ANIMALS!
ANYONE LABELED A TERRORIST! Can be DETAINED WITHOUT DUE PROCESS AND DISAPPEAR FOREVER IN AMERICA’S INTERNMENT CAMPS!
Christian’s, Veterans and the elderly are now targeted for these fascist death camps.
NAZI GERMANY has now come to America!
American citizens are now paid a BOUNTY by law enforcement for SQUEALING on their NEIGHBORS for having GUNS.
REMEMBER THIS:
First they came for the communists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.
HISTORY IS REPEATING ITSELF ONCE AGAIN…
Americans are more concerned about material and sexual pleasure than standing up for their precious freedoms! The “LUKEWARM CHURCH” is ushering in our “END TIMES.” Their rewards will be here on earth and after he or she draws their last breath they will end up in the “PITS OF HELL!”
Did you know if your ministry is a 501 Corporation the government has every right to take over your ministry? Did you know some preachers are being paid by the government to help bring in MARTIAL LAW when the president declares it? The “DOGS OF WAR” are now on the run!
Did you know the “INTERNET—KILL—SWITCH” is now in place? It won’t be long before “TRUTH REVEALERS” like myself will be silenced forever…
Instead of preaching the “PROSPERITY GOSPEL” real preachers should be sounding the “ALARM” before IT’S TO LATE…
Inside sources have revealed the U.S. Dollar with be devalued by 40% by the end of the year through INFLATION! Also revealed is the fact the the U.S. DOLLAR will be completely DESTROYED by the end of the year.
Also revealed is a good chance there will be WAR between IRAN–AMERICA—and—ISRAEL.This will be accomplished to re-elect Obama. Of course the president now has the power to SUSPEND ALL ELECTIONS…Did you know all phone calls and E-Mails are being tracked by the N.S.A? America’s secret technology is 25 years ahead of what the average citizen has seen. This means our government has computers 25 years more advanced than the average PC!
INTERNMENT CAMPS THROUGHOUT THE U.S. ARE NOW BEING MANNED for CIVIL UNREST rapidly coming with the dollar is destroyed… If you’ve seen the LUNATIC RANTINGS of elected officials like Lieberman—MeCain—Lindsey Graham, then you know they represent Satan’s ONE WORLD ORDER. They want citizens arrested without do process of the law.
All the VAST EMPIRES of today’s “LUKEWARM MINISTRIES” will be taken over by the Anti-Christ during the Tribulation. These “HYPOCRITE MINISTERS” should be “SOUNDING THE ALARM” instead of building vast empires for the Anti-Chrsit…
YOU DON’T HAVE TO BELIEVE ME! Wait and see what happens by the end of 2012…You will either serve the ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT or God Almighty! Your position in life or material possessions won’t save you from literal hell coming to America….
9,000 MILITARY CHECK POINTS ARE BEING SETUP IN AMERICA…
AMERICA IS A NATION OF LIARS—-
AMERICA’S POLICE STATE IS NOW HERE———–
SEND TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW BEFORE IT’S TO LATE!!! WORLD WAR III IS ALMOST HERE—

On Jan. 18th there is going to be an all-out strike on the internet. Websites across the internet are going dark in protest of the internet censorship bills in Congress, SOPA and PIPA.
Some of the biggest sites in the world are participating: Reddit, Mozilla. And some others may join (e.g. a leading micro-blogging platform and a popular collaboratively-written encyclopedia), but they need a nudge. If we can get them to join this will be EPIC.
Ask the biggest sites on the internet to join the strike. Click here.
