does anyone remember a few years back, around the late 90's i think this heaven's day cult which commited mass suicide.
well they had this odd looking leader with weird looking facial expressions. i was just thinking how Bush looks a lot like that, especially when i see the pics people post on here.

Any mention of a comet makes me think of it. This was during the pass of Hale Bopp comet in the mid 90's.

They were the ones who thought they were going to be able to ride on the comet called Hale-Bopp right?

11. That was just the weirdest thing. |

I think that event actually changed the way I view human nature.
They were all pretty smart people -- computer programmers -- but somehow they really thought they should get castrated and wear matching clothes and pack their suitcases before killing themselves and going for a ride on a comet. I can imagine one person going crazy and having delusions, but like a dozen people with exactly the same delusion?
Mind control is real!
