Interview with Anonymous Survivor
Within the last couple weeks I had the chance to get ahold of a survivor from the Heaven's Gate cult. (The survivor chose to be anonymous)
Throughout the exchanging of emails, I asked him a few questions pertaining to his time as a Heaven's Gate member.
I asked the following questions:
What made you interested in wanting to join Heaven's Gate?
Answer:
We went to a meeting of Ti and Do back in September, 1975. They clearly laid out their mission and many joined the Group, like ourselves, at that time. They filled in all the missing pieces of the religions around the world and brought forward the complete truth.
What made you want to attend this meeting?
Answer:
Simply saw posters around stores in Eugene, Oregon. It sounded very interesting.
What were some of your day-to-day activities as a member?
Answer:
The activities that most humans do as a matter of course during a day (food preparation, cleaning, maintenance and purchases) were turned into specific tasks by the Group. This made for elements of higher level discipline and lessons that only improved the way that we behaved with each other. Human reactions and emotions were removed from the equation and we performed in ways that were clearly above anything on this planet. The individuals in the Group were the finest people on earth.
