A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

All the cult leaders who claim to be God/Jesus never have any powers. If I join your cult, and you claim to be Jesus, you'd be better be ready to do some magic. (lemmy.world)

Anyone see the HBO documentary "Love Has Won: The Cult of Mother God"?

All the woman did was drink and turn blue and couldn't even heal herself.

There is a fun Netflix documentary where a guy creates his own cult: Kumare.

In the end he feels bad for taking advantage of peoples’ trust particularly when vulnerable and has a semi-sincere apology for including them in his project.

So the first requirement is you need to be a bit of a sociopath or a true believer (aka a bit crazy)
