Jonestown: Cults
built 266 days ago
Jonestown is one of the three original towns that became the city of Baltimore in 1797. National Register sites abound. It is located adjacent to downtown. The Reginald F. Lewis Museum of African American History and Culture is a new tourist destination in the neighborhood.
Jonestown.com Site operated by Jonestown survivor, Laurie Kahalas. She is the author of the book, Snake Dance: Unravelling the Mysteries of Jonestown. Buyer beware: The late Jeffrey K. Hadden, a cult apologist, and Heber C. Jentsch, President, Church of Scientology International, have commented positively on this book.
COULD IT HAPPEN AGAIN?: Parents and other concerned individuals worry that a catastrophe like Jonestown could happen again. Were the factors at Jonestown exclusive to their time, or are there warning signs that can be applied across the culture? Where is the line between appropriate intervention, and the trampling of human and religious rights? What can be done when investigatory bodies of the press and government are used to escalate and provoke catastrophe instead of defusing it?
