    Extractions: Special Section — Heaven's Gate Suicide Heaven's Gate, the cult that in late March (1997) took their lives in a mass suicide, disturbed many people with their actions. But, unlike other cults, it wasn't their overt day-to-day activities that upset their neighbors. In fact, this general non-offensiveness is partly what caught the few who knew of them completely off-guard. You'd expect the outspoken, obnoxious "wackos" to perhaps do something like this, or at least it wouldn't come as too large a shock. But this group was different. When the first reports came in, after the police had discovered the site, no one knew what to think. The concept of a group, so quiet and unassuming that they could've been one's OWN neighbors, doing this kind of thing left many in a shock. The terms "irrational" and "crazy" were thrown around. But I knew better. Granted, I obviously wasn't advocating these people to be the pinnacle of sanity, but I knew they had to have a reason for doing this, some guiding purpose, no matter how odd or unusual. Teaming up with Morning Wren, we took a thorough look at the information from the cult still available on the Internet. From this, the puzzle began to come together . . .

Why would so many intelligent, seemingly healthy people take their own lives with such enthusiasm? This action of self-destruction/birth is not unprecedented. One may look at a similar instance of a devout Jewish sect committing mass suicide at Masada around 73 A.D. or more recently the Jonestown disaster. This paper will look at the theology and actions of the Heaven's Gate cult members and explain these in a context of existentialist and transpersonal thought.

    Extractions: HEAVEN'S GATE Christian / UFO believers Click Here to Visit our Sponsors. Heaven's Gate is a destructive, doomsday cult centered in California. 21 women and 18 men voluntarily committed suicide in three groups on three successive days starting on 1997-MAR-23. Most were in their 40's; the rest covered an age range of 26 to 72. Two months later, two additional members, Charles Humphrey and Wayne Cooke attempted suicide in a hotel room a few miles from the Rancho Santa Fe mansion; Cooke succeeded. Humphrey tried again in the Arizona desert during 1998-FEB and was successful. "Heaven's Gate" was the latest of three organizations founded by Marshall Herff Applewhite and Bonnie " Ti " Lu Trusdale Nettles, a.k.a. " The Two ." The first was Human Individual Metamorphosis (HIM) which they organized in 1975. They traveled to the Colorado desert to wait for the arrival of a UFO. None came. Bonnie Nettles died of cancer in 1985. Applewhite organized a new group called Total Overcomers Anonymous or "TOA" in 1993. They placed an ad in

    Extractions: "Heaven's Gate" Religious Cult by Bob Soetebier On the Thursday, March 27, 1997, edition of the NBC "Today" show's coverage of the 39-people mass suicide by the "Heaven's Gate" religious cult they interviewed a physicist (didn't catch his name) who was supposed to be an expert researcher on religious cults. He mentioned that back in 1844 there was *another* "Heaven's Gate" cult known as "Moorites." The 1844 Moorites (100,000 of them!) were followers of a man named Moore (didn't catch his first name). Moore preached that a comet was the harbinger of imminent earth cataclysm (End of the World). The physicist said that Moore instructed his followers to take off all of their clothes and climb onto the roofs of their houses on the night of the either the Spring Equinox or just before Easter (can't remember exactly which he said for sure). The purpose of this was supposed to be so that they would be "closer to Heaven" and make it "easier for the angels" (possibly from "spacecraft" that's what the physicist said Moore told them) to pick them up and take them up to "Heaven's Gate." The physicist said that Moore's theory was that with the harbinger (the comet) of the imminent End of the World that "Heaven's Gate" (which Moore and his followers were convinced was of limited *physical* dimensions on another plane) that it was imperative for he and his followers to get a head start to/through it before it became jammed/overcrowded with the coming inundation of all the souls/spirits from the mass of humanity that would soon perish! Moore preached that only so many souls/spirits could pass through "Heaven's Gate" (again, because of its presumed physical limitations) at one time.

    Extractions: Organization: Spacestar Communications, Minneapolis, MN, USA We are at the end of an Age, or the end of another civilization. As was prophesied, this is the "judgment time" for all living creatures on or related to this planet in other words, the time when "where we find ourselves," as a result of our accumulated choices during our time here, determines our Judgment. The choices of many will find them in a "mind set" that would see the above statements as "cultish," radical, and doomsdayish, to say the least, while others have chosen to seek mental nourishment that would have them suspect "Truth" in these statements. With little awareness of it, all of us at this time are finding ourselves aligning with others of common mind. This commonness becomes our mental preoccupation. Though subconscious, it takes the form of our determination or judgment of what is RIGHT or GOOD, or who is superior, or has been suppressed or wronged. Some are also preoccupied with racial supremacy, which religious concept is truly God's, and who presently represents the real "Satan." At the close of an Age there are:

    Extractions: some early remarks More Heaven's Gate links In March 1997, once again people found dead bodies in a house in Canada. The house belonged to a ‘New Age' religious cult, the Order of the Solar Temple . Like this group had done before, it was both suicide by cult members, and murder of people unwilling to join them in death. However, on 26 March, news about a bigger collective suicide replaced this item in the media. In a luxurious mansion at Rancho Santa Fe near San Diego in California in the United States, police found 39 bodies of members of the Heaven's Gate religious organization. Their age varied from teenager to elderly. They included an ex-Miss Rodeo, a former cowboy movie actor, and the brother of an actress in the TV series Star Trek . Some of them were castrated. This was an extreme case of negative ideas about sex, which one may find also elsewhere in occultism, like in the novel The Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield. They wore uniform clothes. After their deaths, purple shrouds covered them. The American ‘paranormal' spoon-bender Uri Geller , known from TV entertainment shows in The Netherlands and elsewhere, told on CNN television that he might have been among the Heaven's Gate dead. The cult had asked him to join. However, Geller said, though he believed in
