Greatest Religion Ever

Founded on September 16th, 1912 by Feldwebel Stahlamboss, a former Army captain, Doktor Eisenschwanz, a mad doctor, and Herr Johann Van Pinky Rosie der Rosa Bär des Todes, the richest man of all time, the Jump Cult was first established in an old bunker deep inside the catacombs of Berlin, Germany.

Since then, it has grown to a colossal 1337 meter tower in downtown Berlin.

The Jump Cult worships the almighty Cthtuljump F'thagn, and his pet, the Wichskröte.

The main rituals of the Jump Cult are jumping off bridges, buildings, mountains, hills, antennas, and poles.

Though we must insist this is all done inside video games, and totally NOT in real life.

The Steam group's avatar depicts the Jump Cult's favorite gathering place, the Stor Stein. It is situated just outside Berlin.

On September 16th, the annual "CTHULJUMPSÜßER16er" ceremony is held, where all 20000 (+- 19997) members of the Jump Cult gather to jump off their massive skyscraper.

It is all done inside video games, however, and is unrelated to the Jump Cult beginning mass recruitment on September 17th.

And they all get 9001 (or 1337, the number is as of yet, unclear) virgins after getting to the Tomrom, which is the place where all Jump Cult adepts go after death.

Video game death, of course.

The prophecy of the Jump Cult is written on cheap 1912 Berlin paper. It states that at the apex of time, on the 2001st annual "CTHULJUMPSÜßER16er" ceremony, an evil large man shall strike with the greatest weapon known to man, tearing apart the fabric of the universe.

In that time of great anguish and pain, Cthtuljump F'thagn and his pet the Wichskröte shall return, to judge all men. The adepts shall go to the mighty Tomrom, while the "anti-jumpers" shall go to the Sted, where they will spend all of infinity powering Cthuljump's computer and internet connection.

The Jump Cult was named the "Greatest Religion of All Time" by TIME Magazine on December 31st, 2000.

Long live Cthtuljump F'thagn!
