    In 1971, cult leader Jim Jones established the headquarters of the Peoples Temple on Geary Boulevard in San Francisco, CA. The building is now a US Post Office, and a local survivor of the cult's 909 member mass suicide in Jonestown, Guyana in 1978 remembers what it was like in the early days of the Peoples Temple.

    It was getting violent sometime that night. In pictures you can see carnage.... tables turned over,ect... an arrow through one of the flavoraide tanks.... probably a missed shot at someone. It was known there were people with crossbows lurking around. Point is, there was murdering goin on.....

    What kind of people would have allowed themselves to get caught up in this cult? Were they weak, stupid, looking for fun or a purpose?

    I have a theory about why most victims were lying face down. We know that the first to die were the children. At one point in the tape Jones is heard saying that it's ok for parents to lie with their children, (he even called it "humane!!!") This leads me to believe that up to that point, someone else or more than one person were laying the children down alone as they died. The parents and others just followed suit and went face down as the kids were. Any ideas on this? I enjoy the debate.

    I CAN TELL YOU WHY ALL THIS CAME UPON THESE PEOPLE, THEY FOLLOWED A MAN, INSTEAD OF THEIR BIBLE. Jesus said: Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. Ye shall know a tree by the fruit they bear. Soon as word got around that this man was sleeping with other members wives, and committing acts of homosexuality with the men, that in itself should have told everyone there what kind of sinister seduced sinner they were following. The bible says: FORSAKE THE FOOLISH AND LIVE.....

    @SanjisGirl I am also very weary of religion . I was born into the Jehovah's Witnesses cult . I had no choice. I saw alot of hypocracy growing up and doctrines that were not true.(I always questioned) when I got old enough I moved out on my own and left it behind. I read 2 books that helped me get through the brainwashing/mindcontrol :"Crisis of Conscience" and"In Search of Christian Freedom"by Raymond Franz (A former governing body of the JW's)I try to live good.

    This is why I'm very weary of being heavily involved in religion. I'm not atheist. I believe that there is a god, I just want to live my life and do the best I can. But I don't want to go to a church and have people shove their beliefs and opinions on life down my throat. I will follow the ten commandments and do my best to have a good life while helping/hoping others have the same.

    It might be a miracle that anyone survived Jonestown as long that Jim Jones was in charged.

    @Snakessword The connection between the CIA and Jim Jones from the internet:"the most mysterious connection that Jim Jones had was his childhood friend, Dan Mitrione. Mitrione later became Chief of the Richmond PD... Mitrione was later was recruited into the CIA, under State Department cover, in May of 1960, and was trained in counter-insurgency and torture techniques. Coincidentally, Mitrione had traveled to Brazil as an OPS adviser at the U.S. Consulate not long before Jones had arrived.

    @SuperBeverly123 - you said; If they could lived to see this day we have a black president" It would have made no difference to Jones, he was insane and believed himself to be some sort of God. Socialism is all about making everyone equal (it does not work by the way the political class always stays rich)...and they are never happy.

    @mike1123 no sane person? Socialism is Communism without the testerone to man the barracades. Jones by his own admission was a leftists revolutionary who studied Marxism and said God was a "trixter". God is Principle, Principle is Love, and Love is Socialism." Jim Jones. Do your own homework. I'll suggest a starting point search; The Theology of Jim Jones

    @techservant no-one sane would doubt the extreme manipulation used by Jim Jones, but what the hell does this have to do with communism? Come-on mate, its 2010, drop the 'red fear' crap and recognise that communism, and socialism were an ideal (an ideal that didn't work), but an ideal all the same. The relevance however, is none, although Jim Jones believed in a collective work for collective good, he was hardly communist.

    Just another 900+ souls killed by the twisted mind of a communist leader. That is what communism does, it kills when it doesn't get its way...when it does not work...and it never does.

    @rdsoxs86 - This had nothing to do with religion, the Jim Jones/People's Temple mass suicide in Guyana was a Marxist/Lenninst revolutionary act. Jones was an atheist Marxist who used religion to manipulate people. Hear it in his own words captured on audio here on YouTube, "How could I demonstrate my Marxism? The thought was, infiltrate the church." - Jim Jones You can watch the clip by searching for: Jim Jones & Jonestown - Devolution from Political Force to Revolutionary Suicide

    @SuperBeverly123 Yes. Another messianic cult leader. Perfect. And another vat of poisoned flavor-aid to drink.

    That current logo is remarkably obnoxious. Is it a mind control experiment?
