I Am Fascinated By Science, Religion, and Philosophy

Were you fascinated with what happened in Jonestown? Would you drink the Jonestown kool-aid?

Yes. Fascinating. I'm forever awed by the power some people have over others to make them want to drink the Kool aid, to jump off a cliff, to wear a suicide vest, to follow that powerful person into hell. It's the Adam and Eve thing I guess. Whether Kool aid or apple.

What make me different from all those followers? What makes me different from the millions and millions that followed Hitler into hell?

@Heartlander: yes! Those are exactly the questions that go through my mind.

NigelDoes · 56-60, M

People didn't have a fucking choice but to drink it including many children.

@NigelDoes: good morning my friend.
Some chose freely to drink it. Isn't that curious?

NigelDoes · 56-60, M

I find it a lot more sad than curious.

Unsatisfiedstace · 51-55, F

@NigelDoes: yes i agree is was very sad. Guess I'm just weird to wonder about it.

No but they drink the kool-aid from other false profits..

Unsatisfiedstace · 51-55, F

@masterofyou: great point.

I it amazing what some can get people to do when they manipulate their mind to where they want it. I wold not drink the kool aid but I could go quite far in a sexualized role play but not that far.

Itsmrsockmonkey · M

No I wouldn't have. Many were forced to drink it

NigelDoes · 56-60, M

And you would have been shot to death if you refused.

Unsatisfiedstace · 51-55, F

@Lonelybutneveralone: I know - it was horrible.

Unsatisfiedstace · 51-55, F

@NigelDoes: I think only around 30 people survived that whole thing. How crazy.
