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.
