Well, if you’re really that gung ho about joining a cult, I suppose you can e-mail Ian Astbury. How good are you at the tamborine?

Say, HubZilla, I’ve got the same story. Back in the early-mid 90’s when they seemed to be at their largest. At least, I never hear about them anymore these days though I assume they’re still around. Remember when 20/20 and MTv and them were all running stories about the ICoC and the church said it was because Satan was scared of their work and trying to discredit them? I always wanted to ask if the lack of news stories now means that Satan decided they’re no longer a threat 😉
