Cult of Nostradamus
The Cult of Nostradamus was supposedly founded in the late 18th century. Its members follow the Quatrains of Nostradamus, which supposedly predicted several major disasters, including The Great Fire of London, World War II, the Death of Diana, Princess of Wales and the attack on the Twin Towers. The Quatrains also predict hypothetical future disasters such as World War III and the End of the world.
Members of the cult are said to a dark shade of purple. Members may also wear an infinity symbol (i.e. '∞') and to own a Nostradamus Quatrains book, which is only available to those of the Cult.
The CON (as it is abbreviated) is known for its 'perfect world ideologies' by an 'any means necessary' policy. It supposedly has many members in high positions of authority over businesses, media and organisations.

Famous quotes containing the words cult of and/or cult:
“By Modernism I mean the positive rejection of the past and the blind belief in the process of change, in novelty for its own sake, in the idea that progress through time equates with cultural progress; in the cult of individuality, originality and self-expression.”
—Dan Cruickshank (b. 1949)
“Look at this poet William Carlos Williams: he is primitive and native, and his roots are in raw forest and violent places; he is word-sick and place-crazy. He admires strength, but for what? Violence! This is the cult of the frontier mind.”
—Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
