In this Thread would be about the CHossen and there up bringing , we all saw the series and only got briefs hints about them and how large they were , so here is a question/Theory.
The Locust Zoots Tribe would not disband quickly but to believe Jaffa AKA The Guardian would take over to create a religon would be that easy , they had to be other beside Ebony who would rule them , but we saw The Guardian rein over them , and it makes me wonder on what life was like as a CHossen , by Luke or others point of view , or ex Locos as well , My point is after all said and done.
What do you really think about the Chossen? and there Religion?

I think the Chosen were good at creating fear. Saying it was a religion... well it's a bit to far off. More of a cult. Understandably that it was supposed to religion with simple teachings, but the Guardian was demented. the Guardian really only wanted one thing, power. Nothing more, nothing less. The worst part was how he rationalized all the bad things he did and his claim to power. Let's be honest, he'd make a great dictator. Until of course people would've overthrew him and hung him. That's what most of the city wanted to do anyways.

For me I would see Luke’s point of view , in the beginning The Chossen took in many kids who were sick or starving or alone , helping them by providing food and shelter and becoming part of the Chossen , I believe that most of the Chossen were like Luke to help others and rebuild , but then came down fall when he saw the Guardian true intentions.

I guess before the Guardian went sort of mad he must have been very bright. He gave scared kids something to believe in, I'm shure though most of them dind't join to worship Zoot, at the start, but to have food and shelter, just like May did. Once they were in it is much easier to start twisting their minds. And the Guardian never forgot about how important fear is to keep people under control.

I think the Guardian just went a little too far with some of his own ideas and eventually drove himself mad by the amount of ower he had, and the amount of power he was losing.
