| Commonly asked questions about TheKult.net. |
| 1. What is Kult? |
| Kult is a direct action and personal empowerment organization which functions primarily on the Internet. See http://www.thekult.net/whatkultis.html for more information. added on 2002-03-28 |
| 2. What are the Ministries? |

|
| 3. What are Cells? |
| Cells are smaller groups of members that focus on one activity or Kult project. For example, the Init Cell is a group of members which review new applications for membership and approve them. Most cells are part of one of the above Ministries. added on 2002-03-28 |
| 4. What are Clans? |
| Clans (or Klans) aren't used much anymore, but originally, Kult members were divided into nine categories that indicated their main interest or specialty. The Clans are:
Cenobyte - Specializing in pleasures of the flesh, e.g. drugs and sex
Originally all new members had to choose a Clan, but now this is optional. |
| 5. What is RantRadio or Patient Zero or Sean Kennedy or Guardians or... |
| A lot of things have changed in the past year in Kult. It's a long story, but there are many things that used to be very important that aren't really a part of Kult anymore except as parts of its history. Most of these things aren't important to Kult anymore except in helping to understand our history, where we've come from, and where some people get their stories from. If you are really curious, many older members can explain a lot of these topics to you. See also our History page. added on 2002-03-28 .... updated on 2002-04-15 |
| 6. Who is in charge? |
| Everyone is in charge of themselves and their cells and projects, though the Arbitration Cell has limited power to express what Kult's official beliefs are, and the exclusive power to remove people. Other decisions are made by certain cells in the Ministry of Administration, which does the work that keeps Kult running.
The Arbitration Cell is elected once every three months, with one member from each Ministry and one member elected from the general membership. They meet only as needed. |
| 7. I am really good at HTML and I read lots of sites where I can get stories for thekult.net. Should I join? |
| This isn't really a good enough reason to join. We're glad you like thekult.net, our weblog and news portal. But Kult is more than a webpage or a collection of relevant news stories. We are a network of people who often work together on common goals to improve ourselves, empower people, and end victimization in society and the inequitable use of power. Many of us seek to do things which go beyond what can be done on our webpage or even just on the Internet, and we have done many things to help our members and others on the wider Internet and also in the real world. If you think Kult is just a neat website, you've got the wrong idea about us.
See http://www.thekult.net/whatkultis.html for some more information on what we are. |
| 8. I want to start an army which will rise up and violetly take over my country's government and run things the way they should be run. |
| Go join Al-Qaeda or something. You've got the wrong idea about us, too. added on 2002-03-28 |
| 9. When and if I apply how do I know if I was accepted |
| There are 2 ways in which you can find out 1) Your name appears on the main site as a new blood. 2) You will get 3 E-mails, One welcome letter, an info letter, and an e-mail telling you that an account has been made. added on 2002-03-28 |
| 10. How long does it take for me to find out? |
| It usually takes 1 - 3 weeks added on 2002-03-28 |
| 11. Where do you guys chat? |
| Our chatroom is located on the otherside network in #thekult. Most of us also hang out in #rantradio. added on 2002-03-30 |
| 12. What is the other Kult at thekult.greyunion.org ? |
| Kult Grey Union (formerly called Kult Black Milk) is a version of Kult that has adopted a military-like leadership style based on the strict following of the writings of Sean Kennedy. It formed around the same time as TheKult.Net. KGU was founded in the spring of 2001 by a member of the old KULT, Prophet Frail, and Valmondy, a member of another group named Black Milk. Since they didn't know about this Kult, they made their own. Kult Grey Union is another counterculture group with some of the same values as Kult, but a different structure with a single leader at the top, a crew of commanding officers, and others with special titles, and everyone else divided into Clans. added on 2002-04-15 .... updated on 2003-01-06 |
| 13. What if I like the idea of Kult, but not sure that I want to be a member? |
| You can be a Friend of Kult, which gives you minimal access to the web site and doesn't require a full application.
You should contact join@thekult.net and ask about becoming a Friend. Tell us why you want to be a Friend of Kult and also feel free to discuss why you are uneasy about becoming a member. |
