Overview

Was Charles Manson the New Messiah, Satan, or a small-time hustler with a big grudge against the wealthy? Was Jim 'Father' Jones the misunderstood champion of the poor and dispossessed or a cruel, bigoted egotist who preyed on the weak and impressionable? What is the declared intention for mankind of the Unification Church? What was the unique vision of science fiction author L. Ron Hubbard? What do New Religious Movements offer that established organised religions do not? Is it possible to answer any of these questions definitively? On this recording you will hear the voices of Charles Manson, the Reverend Jim Jones, Aleister Crowley, Kenneth Anger, Sandy Robertson and Philip Shallcrass.
