"Leave with Us" Heaven's Gate Cult Initiation Tape

Heaven's Gate Cult Initiation Tape Part 1

"This was the exact spiel that cult leader Marshall Applewhite used on his initiates, to convince them that they needed to die and "escape" before the Earth got "recycled." Members of the Star Trek-loving group, which had dwindled from many thousands in the 1970s to just over three dozen in the late 1990s, were discovered in a mass suicide in a San Diego mansion. The original Heaven's Gate website has also been preserved."
