Ehh, very loosely related (this thread being about cults and stuff..)...But did anyone here hear about Heaven's Gate? They were a UFO cult, who committed mass suicide back in the late 90s. Basically they thought they were Aliens and that they were to follow comet Hale-Bopp back to "the evolutionary level above human". They spend all their time on earth while in the cult trying to rid themselves of human traits since they basically believed their body to only be a vessel until they could return to their real life in space. Yeah crazy stuff!
Here's a good documentary on them that's pretty interesting:
And another one:
This is the final video they made before killing themselves off.
There is also a video on YouTube with each member of the cult explaining why etc etc.
Also, even more creepy, their original webpage is still up and you can still send them e-mails, which they will reply. Apparently a few cult members was chosen to be left behind to spread the word
