  1.2 Concepts  
  Article 16-Cretin  
  Canon 2027  
  A Cretin is any person who has been poorly educated and accepted into a particular Religion or Cult in accordance with its beliefs while temporarily losing their faculties of reason, logic and competence. Hence, a Cretin is an idiot member of a Religion or Cult in contrast to an Initiate or Cultor.  
  Canon 2028  
  By definition, the majority of members of a Cult are Cretins, with few Cultors.  
  Canon 2029  
  While the terms "cretin" and "cretinism" are used in medical science to define certain permanent mental and physical deformaties, the severe mental impairment known as "Cretin" deliberately brought about by membership to a Cult or a Religion is temporary and may be reversed through therapy and knowledge.  
  Canon 2030  
  A Cretin does not imply a person unable to reverse the effects of membership to a Cult, nor may the use of the term be considered a term of derision but a statement of fact that a person has temporarily lost their faculties of reason, logic and competence in being part of a Cult.  
  Canon 2031  
  The Cultors of a Cult are personally liable for any punitive damage resulting from any actions or attacks by Cretins of their Cult against these canons and UCADIA.  
  Canon 2032  
  Through the deliberately manipulative training of Cultors, a Cretin is taught to be suspicious of knowledge, especially Gnosis. Therefore, a person proven to be a Cretin cannot be permitted to hold any official position in which they are responsible for the teaching of children, the research or writing of knowledge or communication, media or commentary concerning knowledge.
