Not forgetting Jim Jones. Now there are two "J's", so double trouble?
Seriously though. I remember when the Jim Jones massacre took place, it was discussed at length how he had evolved into a cult type messiah, who brainwashed his followers. Then there was the Waco massacre and more discussion. Lastly a man called Graham Capill, the most upright pillar of New Zealand politics, the leader of a Christian party, was jailed for sex offences with young girls and silence. Why, because he was to close for comfort, he went to the same church as my parents and he screamed from the pulpit the evils of immorality and homosexuality, he was the hero, then total silence. And guess what Graham Capill's parents did for a living? Answer on Wikipedia.
