Introduction
This cult started in 1966. It has a twisted history and it may have been criminal. They had beliefs and rituals that were based on psychology, Scientology and Christianity. There were several famous people in this cult. It became Best Friends Animal Society in 1993.
History
Mary Ann MacLean and Robert Moore were members of the Church of Scientology in London. They left the church in 1962 and got married a year later. They created Compulsions Analysis, which later became The Process Church of Final Judgement. They used methods of Scientology and ideas from Alfred Adler in the cult.
The church started in London, then moved to the Bahamas. From there to Mexico City. The natives didn't like them and parents of the cult members tried to get their children out. A hurricane hit the compound, the leaders and some of the followers moved back to London.
The church opened a coffee shop and library called Satan's Cavern. It also created it's own magazine, books, tv and radio shows. Chapters of process was created in United States, Canada, and Europe. The members that stayed behind in Mexico City joined the New Orleans chapter.
Members of the church were attacked in public because of their association with Manson. Some people stopped donating because of this. In response the church became less satanic. One of the reasons people believe Manson was connected to the church was the fact he lived down the street from them in 1967!!!! The church interviewed him when he was prison in 71.
In 1974 MacLean and Moore split, because MacLean felt the Satanic phase is ova and the Christian phase is beginning. Moore left with a minority of followers. He started a new cult that lasted for 5 years. The Process Church became a Christian church. In 1993 it became Best Friends Animal Society and no-religious.
Beliefs
The founders of PC wanted to bring good and evil together. They thought that would create a better world. The bible was important to them, especially the book of Matthew. Moore essays were important as well. The church believed in a supreme being; humanity was opposed to this supreme being. They called humanity Satan. The purpose of their rituals was to get evil out of humanity so they could be closer to God. They believed there are 4 forces in our psyche: Jehova, Jesus, Satan, and Lucifer. These 4 forces are parts of the supreme being.
"Each god was representative of certain personality traits. Jehovah was “the wrathful god of vengeance and retribution” who demanded discipline, courage, and dedication to duty and purity. Lucifer, also called the Light Bearer, was fun loving and kind. He valued success and peace. Satan instilled in his followers two very distinct qualities; the first being the desire to rise above the human realm, to be free of its needs, and to become “all soul and no body”. The other quality is a desire to sink below the human realm and become absorbed in violence and other forms of excessive physical indulgence. Christ is the god’s link to human beings and provides humans with all the skills they need to overcome problems and difficulties in life. Each person had a particular god with whom they shared the most characteristics." Eventually Jehovah and Lucifer will merge, as well as Jesus and Satan.
Rituals
Baptisms, marriages, Sabbath Assembly are some of their rituals. Members were baptised when they leveled up and they said a special chant. They had hetero and homo marriages. The Sabbath Assembly was on Saturday night. @ this assembly a sermon was given and they all chanted together.
The main therapy session was Telepathy Developing Circle. It was thought it helped them become more telepathic. They had midnight meditations on the weekend. They meditate on a positive and a negative idea, then they synthesised it. People were processed by with a P-Scope. It was based on the E-meter in Scientology. The scope discovered someone's subconscious thoughts and emotions. It was like a lie detector test.
They may have engaged in animal and/or human sacrifice. Someone claimed they sacrificed dogs, but no evidence was found. If any serial killers were connected to the church, some of their killings may have been sacrifices. If the PC committed sacrifices, they wore black robes while doing it.
Criminal Activity
The Son of Sam murders was committed by a cult. People in the cult did drugs and studied the occult. That cult was infiltrated by the Process Church (PC). Because of that, members of the cult made snuff films and trafficked children. David Berkowitz was arrested 4 the murders, he only committed some them. All the other murders got away. It looks like Charles Manson was a member of the PC before he became a cult leader. The Zodiac Killer may have been connected to the PC. Some people believe there is no connection between the PC and serial killers.
Famous Members
The beatles hired an astrologer after they opened a shop. That astrologer joined the PC after she was fired. Members of Rolling Stones joined the PC. Marianne Faithfull is an actress and was Mike Jagger girlfriend. She was a member of the PC.
Best Friends Animal Society
Their headquarters is in Utah and they help animals get adopted. It started in 1993 after the loony toons broke up. They helped animals during Hurricane Katrina. There was 800 cats in Nevada that were saved by them. Animals were saved by them in Peru after an earthquake in 2007. They saved 22 of the dogs that Michael Vick used 4 dog fighting. They neuter homeless cats around the country.
