Is it because I want to believe I am better than those who aren't in the cult, or because I want to feel safe from people out side of the cult, or because I want to use the cult to my advantage, or because I am too ashamed to admit that I was wrong to most fellow Christians? Or could it be that I'm looking for a crazy experience or just want to know alot, or am tired of plain Christianity? Why am I such a cult addict?

Join us, the Higher Order of Cult Addicts, and you will understand all of these questions. You will gaze down upon the ordinary cult followers with insight and amusement, and you will never have to join another cult again.

I don't know if you are serious or not, but I think most people who are hooked in a cult, or even more those who go from one to another, are looking for a safe haven. Just have someone tell you what to do all day, you don't have to make decisions, just obey. It's quite like living with your parents when you were a child, and feels very secure.
Only problem is, you can't grow up that way. You have to stay a dependent child.

Maybe all of those reasons have something to do with it. There is much written on the internet about the psychology of cults. It might be helpful to you to do a web search and do some reading.
I do think people who join cults want to be special and they want to belong. Most people want this but if the need is too intense it may be the result of childhood injuries.

Well. I dont know you so can't really answer this properly, but!!!
The majority of people, regardless of what religion they come from, who have an interest in the occult will seek to find information on it. Even if its only a basic want to know.
Cults as you call them, are an easy way of finding the information you seek. So as long as the cults are giving the answers you want to hear you will continue seeking them out. If you understood any of that lol.
I am pagan myself, i seek for knowledge anywhere i can find, but i don't trust any covens etc simply because i have had my first ever coven try to betray me. Kind of ended that for me lol.

If you are in such a denial stage, how come you say you are addicted? You look like not in any cult to me.

Melissa Y, God don't mind CHRISTMAS because its reveals God, not meaning His birthday as some ancient idiots. like followers of Jesus beleived but revealed the look of GOD who sums up to h.
G+o+d=7+15+4=2+6=8=h
M=IVI sealed together
visually both statements are correct?
thus
CHRISTMAS reveals
C GOD RIST IVI sealed together AS
also NT said the Lamb that was SLAIN (ie SiL A I IV) was God the King of KINGS and Lord of LORDS, so when you turn the arm that appears as IVI sealed together (ie IIII I) it looks like I IIII.
So i appear to be your LORD GOD who is glorified in almost everything, when you know my name and birthday.
DIEU=DI [iL U=IIII I [iL U
DIO=IIII I .
GOTT=CuT nuT iT
Do you see what God means? those are 3 words(descriptions) of God. Doesn't the logic make you understand why i am allowed to print my beleifs on the net? Is it because Canada is a free country or is it because I AM really Lord God?
and in a funny way I created the planet.
see
eIn tad(eIn as in one(german), tad pronounced TODD)
created the planet when you unscramble the eIn tad.
so in effect one(german) TODD created the planet?
but the physical world, i didn't, only jehovahites claim that, i think? but thats hebrew propaganda, which you don't really beleive do you?
So for what it's worth God just may have taken time to personally write this drivel or holy words.

Hard to say. Are you contemptuous of science and reason?
Maybe since you admit that you entertain irrational beliefs, its time to investigate the natural world and appreciate it for its inherent mystery and beauty.
