I thought Id share this with those who might be interested. This isnt posted to begin another one of our long threads on who is right or wrong because I think both sides will likely sit on the same side of the fence here. Take the time to follow this. Its specifically about a Cult lead by a man with the pseudonym "Michael" who claims to be the second coming. (Funny how most cult leaders take on this name isnt it?) This is scary and the youtube vids will give you a good idea on what they are and what they stand for. The absolute worst parts are the fact that children are used in this cult, and for those who know me well and what I stand for, this abhores me to no end...it literally makes me sick to my stomach.
The real scary stuff will come from a thread at an Atheist website where some of the cult members actually started posting their beliefs to the Heathens. They got a far different response then what they expected and the posts are truly one of the most bizarre yet scary things I have ever read. Some members of the Cult who managed to leave/escape joined in the thread as well.
"Timothy" is the first person in the thread from the cult...followed by Danielle and others...members of "Strong city".
I feel very sorry for these people. I hope that they eventually see the light about what this man is doing.
Edit- This man is just fataing sick. He's saying that his sleeping with naked young girls is more appropriate and required than doctors giving tests to naked people.
I will get into all of this later as I find it fascinating and disturbing, in equal parts.
But so far what I've gotten to is....dude, he missed!
I wonder what he tells his followers a couple of months now past the time they were all to ascend to heaven?

Sick...and wrong. And I blame the people who are part of it...as much as I do the leaders. If you lack the common sense to realize that such a 'belief'...is hogwash, well there isn't much hope for you.

Well I think we can agree on that, but these children are brought up to believe and are indoctrinated into a belief system that is harmful to them and their future.
Its horribly scary watching these types of documentaries.
They actually show it on the video.. they all come out of the compound, walk around for 3 minutes yelling liberty or something, and all go back inside. The next day they won't do anymore interviews. Their site is still up and being updated so lunacy as usual I guess.

Another reason why I could never understand why they have churches devoted to Jehovah witnesses. If the world is going to end, why spend so much money on something that isn't going to exist soon. Could that money not be spent to better your remaining life or the life of others.....

He's been doing this for 20 years, you can only bet that he's said the world will end more than once.
If he admits he's wrong he loses the following, and the naked young girls.
I was standing outside LA City Hall (think Dragnet) in 1984 and a guy on the corner, yelling his message in a loud voice, had a sign saying "The World Is Coming To An End Soon."
Personally, I think these people might not know what they're talking about.

Or they simply have the year wrong! About 500 million years too early!
I laugh at all these people predicting when the world will end, in my cult, it will happen suddenly, unexpectedly and without mercy, and the last human cry which will bounce across the universe forever will be
"What the f#ck . . . . "

Hey, if I can make a whole species or a whole planet curse my name as it slides into the sun, or explodes, or is shattered by a black hole, then mission accomplished.
As long as my exit strategy with Xenos works out.
