The Panacea society is currently based in my home town, they are, to qoute the late Mr Adams “Mostly harmless.” Although, the society as stated the box must be opened in the presence of 24 Anglican bishops, not jesus.

I can go to just about any Christian church around here and find myself among apocalyptic cultists.”

Ding.

FTA: “Jesus will return to heaven with the most righteous 144,000 souls.”

This actually is taken from Christian Dogma, with some branches of Christianity also believing that the 144,000 number is the tally of those who get to ascend to heaven.

All religions are cults. The most popular ones are the only ones who have enough people to shout back saying theirs is not one.

You don’t even have to be an atheist to see this. I know many agnostic and “spiritual but not religious” people who simply accept there can and may be a higher power and the best thing to do is just to live an honourable life. Can’t argue with that.

I’ve always wondered what made these popular over other religions. Is it because they focus on how miserable their life is and feel they need to be rewarded for their obedience, or is it something else? I’ve never been good with faith, so I have no clue how these can be so appealing.
