CULT LEADERS.- HOW DO WE KNOW WHEN A CULT LEADER IS "EVIL" OR "BAD".

There are people out there who are cult leaders and who do great harm to others emotionally,psychologically,spiritually,physically,or financially. They dress like sheeps but must of the time,there is a wolf undercovered.

Cult leaders like: Jim Jones(The Peoples Temple),Shoko Asahara(Aum Shrinkyo),Joseph Di Mambro and Luc Jouret(The Solar Temple),Marshall Applewhite(Heaven's Gate),David Koresh(Davidian Branch), and many more, have been subject of studies,their personal life, their teachings, and their behaviors.
What stands out about these individuals is that they were all pathologically narcissistic, they all believed that they were specials, that only they had the answers to problems,they also demanded perfect loyalty from followers,they overvalued themselves and devalued those around them,they were intolerant of criticism and above all the did not like being questioned or challenged. 

These and other characteristics are tipical traits of the pathological cult leader that you should watch for and which shout caution, get away, run, or avoid if possible:

01. Demands blind unquestioned obedience.
02. Requieres excessive admiration from followers and outsiders.
03. Is exploitative of others by asking for money or that of relatives putting at  financial risk.
04. Takes sexual advantage of members of his sect ot cult.
05. Make members confess their sins or faults in public, humiliating while revealing weakness.
06. Needs to be the center of attention,using overdramatic speech,and theatrical acts.
07. Has insisted in always having the best of anything(house,car,jewlry,clothes.etc).
08. Anyone who criticizes or questions him is called an "enemy".
09. Believes himself to be omnipotent.
10. Is superficially charming.
11. Treat others with contempt and arrogance.
12. Tries to control others in what they do, read, view, or think.
13. Monitors and restricts contact with family or outsiders.
14. Work the least but demands the most.
15. Has stated that he is "destined for greatness" or that he will be "martyred".
16. Has isolated the group physically(moved to a remote area) so as to not be observed.

When a cult or organizational leader has a preponderance of these traits then we can anticipate that at some point those who associate with him likely suffer physically,emotionally, psychologically, or financially, or finish being as pathologically sick,brainswashed, and willing to do whatever is their wish.
