Hey! Let’s All Be X-ians!

Saw this @ Pharyngula.

As much as I’d like to see religion die a horrible death, this is not cool. Not cool at all. Heads had better roll.

Mak, I’m putting you in charge.

That anyone would have the influence, the hold on the minds of people, and use that power to commit such an atrocity is beyond criminal. Reminds me of Jonestown.

If incidents like this aren’t enough to convince people that religion is nothing more than a way to control/influence/and fleece people, I don’t know what could.

I do wonder when the mastermind had planned to go see jeebus? After all his flock were dead? After everything those people owned had been taken? When exactly?
