Cult '''anointed by God''' kills 7 in Panama jungle

EL TERRON, Panama (AP) — Bibles rest on a wooden altar next to percussion instruments — a guiro and a drum — in the room where a religious sect allegedly forced a pregnant woman and five of her children to walk through fire in this remote hamlet.

The makeshift sanctuary littered with muddy boots and scorched clothing belonged to a cult whose indigenous members professed to be “anointed by God” to sacrifice non-believers, even if the heretics were members of their own families, people in El Terron say.
===========================================================
Jim Jones should have waited for these whackos. However they died or were killed, sipping Jim's KoolAid would probably have been a less painful way out.
 
I put no stock in religion. By the word religion I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of God. - Kingdom of Heaven

I'm with you, brother. Start with removing their tax exemptions. I guess this group didn't pay any but this is an example of how religion can go very wrong against the inherent rights of man.
 
Fantastic... more insanity courtesy of religion.

Sad. The brutality of man toward fellow man is long and bloody. Look at how many millions of people the atheist socialists murdered. Truly tragic what mankind is capable of doing in the name of one thing or another.
