Oregon House, CA — You know it’s coming to the end of the Christmas shopping season when you can’t find that unique gift for a friend or family member who’s involved in a cult. Oh sure, you’ve sent fruit baskets and other non-confrontational items in the past. You even sent that stainless steel nail clipper set to your son, whom you haven’t spoken to in over five years. You’re sure he needs them.
As Christmas day approaches, we here at the Beacon know what it feels like to run out of ideas. Unfortunately, we ran out of good ideas over seven years ago and have stolen them from other publications. Nonetheless, we wanted to give you some great book gift ideas that your trapped friend or family member will appreciate.
Why Does My Leader Drive a Rolls Royce? And 27 Other Answers to Uncomfortable Questions

How To Talk to Your Guru About Sexual Assault
Here’s a book about a tricky topic. After three years of “super love” you’ve received from your brothers and sisters in your cult, your guru wants to have sex with you. Yeah, we know, you’ve sworn a celibacy vow. But all the leaders tell you you must submit to your guru for spiritual cleansing.
How To Talk to Your Guru About Sexual Assault is an essential handbook for discussing a touchy and potentially dangerous topic with your divine leader. Sure, he’ll tell you he’s an angel trapped in a human body and is second only to Jesus Christ in holiness, but don’t let that stop you from asking the tough questions. This book will help.
Practical Fascist Blogging, By George Rebane
From the publisher: This one is more of a cry for help. If you feel that no one is taking you seriously, nothing beats starting a blog focused on made-up right-wing fantasies supported by obscure and unrelated math.

In the spirit of other fascist family classics like How to Dominate “The Blacks” and Mein Kampf, Mr. Rebane explores the delights of “Internet Bomb Throwing” and how you can use it to make yourself an isolated monster that would make Herman Melville blush.
