Peoples Temple of the Disciples of Christ

 Introduction
This cult was started by Jim Jones.  It lasted for over 2 decades and it had an hierarchy.  They had strange beliefs.  Communist mind control was used on the members, so they would be obedient.  There maybe a CIA connection.  In Jonestown, Guyana there was a great massacre.  
Jim Jones
His name was James Warren Jones and he was born in Crete, Indiana on 5/13/1931.  He studied communists, Gandhi, and Adolf Hitler growing up.  He was obsessed with death and religion as a kid.  His father was in the KKK and they fell out because he wouldn't let his black friend in the house.
After his parents separated, he moved with his mom to Richmond.  He found a job @ a hospital.  One day he was working on a patient's bones or skin while shaving him.  He was to rough, so the razor cut the patient.  Then he gave a menacing look to a coworker after he cut the patient.  He met his wife @ this hospital.  
Jim and his wife lived in Bloomington.  He went to university there.  Then they moved to Indianapolis, where he attended Indiana University and Butler University.  He got his degree "10 years after enrolling."

In 1951 he started going to Communist Party USA meetings.  The FBI harassed him and his mother for being communists.  He didn't like the harassment communists experienced by the government.  The trail of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg made him very angry.  He decide to infiltrate the church to spread communism.            
1952 was the year he became a student pastor in a Methodist church.  He left that church because it was racist.  He saw faith healing in 1955; he thought he use it to get people to follow him and give him their $.  

The next year Jim created a healing convention.  He shared the pulpit with another preacher that healed people.  The preacher endorsed Jones which made him popular.  Jim copied the his healing methods.
He traveled to different states preaching with his mentor.  He told people he was Elijah reincarnated and the world was going to end.  He became the president of the Worldwide Pentecostal Convention Broad.
He studied Hitler and Father Divine, so he could control his congregation.  Father Divine told him to create a enemy.  This will unify the congregation and make them subservient.  He became an expert @ mind control or brainwashing.  
In 1960 he became director of the local Human Rights Commission.  After that he integrated "churches, restaurants, the telephone company, the Indianapolis Police Department, a theater, an amusement park, and the Indiana University Health Methodist Hospital.   Swastikas were painted on the homes of two black families, and Jones walked through the neighborhood comforting the local black community and counseling white families not to move.[28] He also set up sting operations to catch restaurants refusing to serve black customers and wrote to American Nazi Party leaders, passing their responses to the media.  Jones was accidentally placed in the black ward of a hospital after a collapse in 1961, but refused to be moved; he began to make the beds and empty the bedpans of black patients. Political pressures resulting from Jones's actions caused hospital officials to desegregate the wards."

Jones and his wife adopted a black kid, white kid, 3 Korean children and a child that was somewhat (native) American.  Jones called his family the Rainbow Family.  He adopted children of different races because he believed in integration.  He had one biological son by his wife named Stephen Gandhi
He traveled to Brazil to build a new church there.  He thought the United States would be destroyed in nuclear war.  He studied Brazilian religions and attracted the locals.  He promored communal living there, instead of talking about Karl Marx.  The Peoples Temple was falling apart, so he moved back to Indiana.  
Jim told his followers he was God in the 70s and rejected Christianity.  He was was really an atheist, but kept his congregation from knowing.  His followers was told no one one will save them.  They have to help themselves and create heaven on Earth.  

Once San Francisco became the headquarters of the church, Jim became very popular.  He helped a mayor get elected.  Then Jim was appointed chairman of housing authority.  Rosalynn Carter spoke to him on several occasions.  They talked about Cuba.  He had his own dinner that was attended by governors.       
Beliefs
They believed in Christianity and communism.  Racial integration was a big deal for them.  They believed in helping poor people, homeless people, and disabled children.  Jones was seen as a son of God and a reincarnation of religious figures.  Remember Christianity was something Jim Jones used so he could promote communism.      

Mind Control
Jim Jones used mind control from North Korea and China.  He learned some techniques from Father Divine.  It seems like some of the women in the cult were beta kitten sex slaves.  Jim was there handlers.  Some members were punished by being put in a small box, kids were hung upside down in a well, others were forced to take drugs, public rape, humiliation, beatings, and verbal abuse.   The assassins in Guyana that killed the Congressman and journalists were under mind control.  Dan White was a mind controlled assassin as well.  He killed 2 people that were connected to the Peoples Temple.  Those 2 people were being investigated 4 missing $.      

Hierarchy
Top Dog: Jim Jones leader of that insanity.  

Inner Circle: He surrounded himself with several dozen upper middle white people.  They help fund the Temple and they were the public face of it.      

Elite: College educated white women.  They would do whatever it takes to promote the top dog message.  The rank and file saw them as secret police.  

Planning Commission:  They controlled the finances and determined what the Temple was doing every day.  They was over other committees.  

Diversions Committee: They wrote letters to politicians to persuade them into doing what Jim wanted.  

Mertles Committee: Their Job was to crush the enemies of the Temple.

Troops: These were the rank and file members.  They were mostly members of my tribe.  They like the communism of Peoples Temple and it was similar to a black church.   
 
History
He created a charity that became Peoples Temple.  The first church he had was called Community Unity Church.  It was in a small "rented space" in Indianapolis.  Members of his his congregation pretended to be healed.  They pretended "cancerous tissues" was coming out their body.  But it was just animal parts.  

1956 was the year Jim got his first church building.  There were several conventions that attracted many people.  There were other preachers @ this convention as well.  Members of the Temple recruited people in Indiana and Ohio.     

People were told to wear casual clothes, so poor people wouldn't feel bad.  Homeless people were given shelter.  My people became half of the congregation, then the majority.  The Peoples Temple merged with the Disciples of Christ in 1959.  The next year he opened a soup kitchen.  There were social services: rent help, job help, free clothes and canned goods, and coal 4 the winter.   
 
Jim was a big fan of Father Divine.  He visited him several times as well as his followers.  Jim told his followers not to have sex and adopt children.  Father Divine had a certain style of preaching, Jones copied it.  He created a home for senior citizens and made Jesus seem like a communist, even though he spoke against the bible.  

The Temple became more communist.  The members was told to spend Christmas and Thanksgiving @ the temple.  They were told to give their possessions to the Temple, so it can meet all the members need.  He had a vision of Chicago and Indianapolis being destroyed by a nuclear missile.  Jim tried to start a Church in Brazil, but was unsuccessful.      

In 1965 the temple moved from Indiana to California.  He preached about communism and said the United States was the Antichrist.  He believed there would be a nuclear war; then the world would become a better place.  Those ideas were probably lies he told people.  There was over 3,000 members.    

Jonestown Massacre       
A lot of the members were drugged when they arrived.  They had small places to live and there food was spoiled.  They had to work 17 hours a day and when they weren't working they had to listen to Jim Jones lectures.  Ova 900 people died there.  It was believed that drank Kool-Aid with cyanide in it.  But it seems like most of them was murdered by security.  Jim Jones may have survived the massacre.  That was the biggest mass murder of U.S. citizens until 9/11.  
CIA Connection
The U.S. embassy paid 4 Jones transportation, groceries, and housing when he was in Brazil.  When he came back to the states he had $10 Gs.  Some of the members in Peoples Temple came from mental hospitals.  An aide of Jones said the CIA and FBI had a audiotape of the massacre.  He was suicided in the bathroom.  A green beret killed some people that survived the massacre. Some of the people that dealt with the aftermath of the mass murder were connected to the CIA.  World Vision was a religious organization that worked for CIA.  They wanted to bring mercenaries from Laos into Jonestown.  Mk Ultra was heavy in Jonestown.       

Conclusion    
Jim Jones started this cult to promote communism.  He was a weird evil guy.  The cult has a long history and they helped a lot of people. Their beliefs was Christian and communist.  He used mind control on his congregation, which eventually to the Jonestown massacre.  He was an CIA asset.
