How to: How to Spot a Narcissistic Psychopath
Most of what is on this website concerns itself with “Third Rail Issues”. We define a “third rail issue” as one that:
- Will get you fired, not hired, not promoted, cancelled, or punished in some way politically, financially, or legally for talking about.
- The speaker will therefore NEVER talk about unless compelled.
- Would be immoral or violative of God’s laws NOT to talk about.
- Creates, protects, or perpetuates some advantage by the party engaging in it over the person they are interacting with and therefore produces theological idolatry and destroys equality.
There is no more important manifestation of one’s spirituality than what their priorities are. All Third Rail issues cause a compromise of one’s principles or morality that results in personal priorities that are out of order. Namely: Their priorities always put SELF at the top of the list. Thus, they become what we sometimes call “the lead pastor of the church of SELF-Worship”.
BIBLICAL priorities violated by making yourself a literal god who is more important than anyone or anything around you are listed below in decreasing order of importance:
- God and His laws.
- Your spouse.
- Your children.
- Your self.
- Your neighbor, meaning loving your neighbor.
The above is what Jesus was talking about in Matt. 20:20-27 and Eph. 5:22-33. The above priorities are described in:

Religious idolatry is merely nothing more than “disordered priorities”. God is supposed to be our FIRST priority. That’s why He calls Himself “the Most High”. What then are the motivations that produce disordered priorities that knock God out of first place and allow Third Rail issues to then kick in and destroy OTHER people’s lives for the benefit of mere self? Here are a few:
- An addiction of some kind, such as alcohol, drugs, dopamine (sex or porn).
- An overriding need that if left unaddressed may result in death or serious disability.
- A responsibility possessed by someone that, if left unsatisfied, may cause the destruction of a marriage or a family.
- Lust for money, power, status, or acclaim.
- Lust for OTHER people’s property or services without paying just compensation for them.
- Atheism or being uneducated about moral principles due to poor upbringing. This causes an unawareness of proper spiritual priorities. See:

In order to get what they desperately want and covet, narcissistic psychopaths will:
- Will often say “trust me” or “believe me” because that is what they quickly want to establish without actually earning it. People with integrity don’t need to say that, because they earn your trust through demonstrating integrity between their actions and what they promised.
- Create and perpetuate the usually legal ignorance they need in their victims in order to maximize the return on their efforts to exploit you.
- Target the legally ignorant, the young, or the old who are naive or who trust people too much. These people make easier targets
- Never directly expose or explain their motivations. If they did, it would interfere with getting what they want.
- Are political chameleons. They will convincingly lie about anything and everything or fabricate truths to get their way and quickly earn undeserved trust without the cost or effort of real long-term integrity that produces it.
- Sacrifice a long-term good for an immediate and temporary benefit of some kind. They have little regard for the future or creating a long-term good for either themself or the greater society.
- Pretend to be empathetic as a way to manipulate a quicker decision or trust that is not truly warranted. They never use empathy as a way to protect their victims from harm.
- Say or do anything necessary to get what they want as quickly as possible, regardless of the long-term consequences. The longer it takes for them to get what they want, the greater risk there is of their exploitative behavior being found out and stopped.
- Use ambiguous language, presumption, and equivocation to make you believe that what they want you to do is something you MUST do, even though it is usually voluntary:
Legal Deception, Propaganda, and Fraud, Form #05.014
https://sedm.org/Forms/05-MemLaw/LegalDecPropFraud.pdf - Try to create or enforce rules that are UNEQUAL between you and them because they think they are better or more deserving or more needy than you. Franchises (Form #05.030), privileges, and sovereign immunity in the legal field are the main method of doing this.
- Target mainly victims who they have superficial relationships with so that there will be no long-term consequences for injuring them and lying will be easier. Narcissists will not use the same deceptive tactics in longer term relationships, because then there could be long-term and serious consequences and because it is exponentially more difficult to tell a convincing lie with so much context behind the relationship. They will:
9.1 Operate with false or fictitious names so that they may operate anonymously and legally unaccountable.
9.2 This is why you aren’t allowed to know the real name of IRS agents. - When asked about the meaning of key terms, will either not do so, or be so imprecise and vague that their agenda is not opening exposed or admitted.
- Behind your back, they will insult you to others but never tell you to your face. They will do this as a way to brag about their exploits. You become just another notch on their gun or belt to enlarge their huge ego.
If we had to summarize all the above into one phrase, we would say that they literally behave as “animals”. Animals only have two motivations in decreasing order of importance:
- Minimize short term pain;
- Maximize short-term pleasure.
We believe THIS scenario, in fact, is the true meaning of “The Beast” mentioned in the Bible book of Revelation.
