The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).

The Scientist's Forbidden Appetite
Just say "NO" to cancer! You cannot legally get tumors without consent.
From your insatiable appetite for all that is strange and unknown, you have trained your body to take all the strange side-effects that threaten to consume you from the inside out.
On the experience of flavors:
So you take this as an excuse to have a little taste of everything this world has to offer. Disgusting as you know it to be, you just can't ignore the possibility that you'll find the perfect recipe for your next project. Your mind is breaking down. What's wrong with immersing it in flavors that you'll never forget?
On the experience of love:
Humans, animals, and aliens alike are bound to hurt you. You've been jilted, shot, and judged far too many times. The only true love that doesn't betray you is the unique marvel in proving you've made a scientific breakthrough... and eating it up. Consume the world if this is what it takes. You don't have to be so afraid of poison anymore. You don't have to taste the hatred.
On being a carrier of disease:
Hey, why the hell not? You're sharing your knowledge! What do you mean, not everyone can withstand the common cold?
