I read your article on the AUM SHINRI KYO (SUPREME TRUTH) as version of the Frozen Chosen. I like it very much. I think the charismatic Jim Jones (inspiration for the derisive phrase "kool aid drinker") makes for equally terrifying group. Both with Leaders inspirational enough to convince cultists to kill or to die for the faith.

The Frozen Chosen are a cult, and cults are known for their slavish devotion. So how does one work and spread after the War? The worst has happened. Where is the Messiah? Where is the Salvation? How much more suffering? When are we saved?

What will these Cultists do for their Faith? Will they kill? Will they kill children? Will they kill themselves to kill others aka the suicide bomber?

What is the mechanism to bring others into the group? Do they reel them in slowly all sweetness and promises? Do they co-opt people with hallucigenics, and manipulation? Are all new members simply children under the age of two?

Who are their enemies?
