[UM-Bot]

Back in 1997, a group of 39 people all committed suicide in the belief that their souls would be carried away by a UFO.

I once meet up a young girl who was so messed up up and so confused that she would believe and follow everything I would say if I was some sort of influencer.  Some people out there are so thirsty for faith and to believe in something that they would literally follow everything without question and doubt.

" Luckily" this teenager just ended up pregnant with the child of God knows who that she needed to raise and she did not have time to contemplate suicide and stuff.  But every time I read stories like this I cannot stop thinking to that person and make parallels.

 This type of fake messiah's Should be placed in jail before given a chance to pray on innocent peoples in distress.

When I was an undergraduate at the University of Oregon there was a woman who was stopping random students and trying to convince them to go see her cult leader. She wasn't very persuasive since she answered every question with, "Oh, that's a very good/intelligent/insightful question! I know exactly who can answer that!" I've always wondered if this was the Heaven's Gate cult. I haven't found much about what they were doing in 1984 but I think they were in Oregon.

I never saw any grand mystery to HGC, doh applesauce who castrated himself and suggested all males do so found a handful of lost souls that accepted whatever BS he was selling convinced them they were above everyone else which some folks desperately need that to the point these poor lost souls were willing to die for it,

Its very sad but at least those lost souls no longer long for what they lacked or are hurting.

Just to throw in a twist, maybe they did meet God behind that comet, and we are the unfaithful who shall perish in judgment lol.

These people had the idea there was a mothership behind Hale-Bopp. That idea was promoted by Coast to Coast's Art Bell. He even posted photos online of the mothership.
