yep, # 14 is the bhagwan. He tried to kill people in Hood River Oregon because they didn't go along with his insanity.

I actually dated one of his followers for a short time. There was a huge poster on his living room wall of the crazy man.

If you're reading this Terry (doubtful) I hope you've gotten over wearing the red outfit and giving your money to cults. You really are a very good person. Just too gullible. Just like I was.

Well, that according to an old friend of mine who knew him... My sister also did accounting for the cult...

The "bioterror" was an attempt to contaminate salad bars, etc. with salmonella in order to sicken people right before an election...

I'm reading the accounts of this right now and comparing them with 25 year old memories, and it looks like the hysteric crowd has blown them out of proportion in the wake of September 11th. Not to defend the Bhagwan; I don't have much of an opinion on him, but his gal Sheela was a decided barracuda...

Actually, it was the Dalles where they contaminated the salad bars with salmonella...

I remember the Bhag waking through his 'town' between two long rows of Rolls Royces and his helicopter flying overhead for 'security.'

#3 is the Marshall Applewhite - they wore matching sweatsuits and committed suicide. The spaceship was supposed to pick them up. Heaven's Gate.

Alright Liz!

The worst thing this woman's death did to the average person was deny them a nearly endless source of laughter...

Oh, that and build a multi-mill bomb shelter the members of the Church Universal and Triumphant crawled into one night sure the world would end in nuclear holocaust that night.

Now, ECP is gone and they are spending hundreds of thousands maintaining their bomb shelter...

The ones that crawled out, mostly left the church and "Paradise Valley" (Yes, that is the official designation of the valley.)

Is Roy Masters listed? That guy and his followers are probably the most influential cult no one has ever heard of. Give you a hint, Matt Drudge and Michael Savage are said to be huge fans.

I can't remember the name of the group but they killed themselves all wearing matching track suits and running shoes..... let me google....Heaven's Gate. Applewhite was his name. I just looked up the images and confirmed, Marshall Applewhite is the 3rd guy.
