Kinda makes you wonder then, did anyone NOT drink the kool-aid? Did anyone leave? Before or after the others drank?
Just some questions. I think it's been said that everyone that was there died, but how do we know that for sure?
You DO have a point Denise, about the choice thing. IF they were all there voluntarily, and IF they all chose to die voluntarily, and NO ONE was brainwashed in any way, then fine, it's their choice. BUT, if they were all under this guy's hypnotic spell, like as in most cults, hence why they are called CULTS, then it was wrong and it is an atrocity. If it was of their own free will, then they should have that choice as humans to live or die as they please.
I think the biggest problem we as people have with people dying is a selfish one. WE want them to still be here with us, and that is selfish. When you put your feelings and your EGO aside, it is easier to accept loss. I'm not saying I can or anything, I hate it when people are killed or when they kill themselves, it's sad. BUT, I know it's my ego that causes those feelings and thoughts. So, I'm one step up on it at least.
