What about the Jim Jones gang? They drank the Kool-Aid, that's all I know. I'm sure he had some whacky religious ideas. Same to the Waco people.
I think the Amish are fascinating. It requires a strong faith to get by the way they do in this ever increasing technological world. And how they get the choice as teenagers to either stay with the faith or leave is extraordinary. All of the emotions and longings that come with that choice is something I could never deal with.
