Why do those death cults always follow the same themes. Male leader, molest young women or kids or men, the world will end.
I get a feel sometimes that these cult leaders don't believe the BS they spew and just want total control of weak minded fools.
BINGO
Because the need for power and control over others drives a lot of wicked people.
This is a link to someone who worked there and explains a bit more about what they were up to.
Google Cult
Wow.. great link. This one stands out to me in particular:
Dan is a pussy and it’s people like him who ruin society.

A New York Times article published this week described how a religious organization called the Fellowship of Friends, which believes higher consciousness can be achieved through fine arts and culture, had developed within a business unit inside Google.
The Fellowship of Friends was founded in the 1970s by Robert Earl Burton and has approximately 1,500 members worldwide. It believes its aim is to create a new civilisation following a doomsday event. The NYT also reports that it believes most people move through a state of “waking sleep” but some can achieve a form of enlightenment.
As many as 12 Fellowship members and close relatives worked for the Google Developer Studio, which produces videos showing Google technology. Kevin Lloyd, who worked as a video producer at Google, said that the company regularly purchased wine from a winery owned by a member of the organisation.
Mr Lloyd filed his lawsuit in a California Superior Court in Silicon Valley, claiming that when he raised the issue of the organisation funelling money from Google into the fellowship he was told he could lose his job. Of the 25 members of the GDS, Mr Lloyd’s alleges that approximately half were members of the fellowship.
Mr Lloyd’s supervisor reportedly “gained status and praise relative to the increase of money flowing to the fellowship through his efforts at Google that put (and kept) other fellowship members – directly or indirectly – on Google’s payroll,” according to the lawsuit.
“We have longstanding employee and supplier policies in place to prevent discrimination and conflicts of interest, and we take those seriously,” a Google spokeswoman said in a statement to the NYT.
“It’s against the law to ask for the religious affiliations of those who work for us or for our suppliers, but we’ll of course thoroughly look into these allegations for any irregularities or improper contracting practices. If we find evidence of policy violations, we will take action.”
Google also claims Mr Lloyd was fired for performance issues. The Fellowship of Friends did not respond to The Independent’s request for comment before time of publication.
So someone called out the satanists ?
I mean, they're not wrong...
once you become enlightened you "pick" a side. think they picked the wrong side.
I knew Google was a cult!
These folks are lost.
Why do people feel they must have a leader? Something I find most disturbing is that people do not listen to their inner dialogue or even have one!! Most feel the need to follow the orders of others. This Group of Friends is the exact type of thing that gives spiritually a bad name.
Google worker was fired for exposing a "cult of moloch"... FTFY
And lines up with the theory that there have been many global resets in the past. Humanity is starting to wake up too much, so they gotta go next lol.
Yeah, right. A bunch of modern day hippies who gaze at fine art while listening to classical music, sitting on designer furniture sipping wine enlightening themselves will rebuild society from the smoking ruins of an apocalypse.
I wonder who's going to dig the latrines for them as they sit around thinking great thoughts?
My bet is they all die of dysentery inside of three months.
Kevin Lloyd is not suicidal.
It's always funny to me how one prominent, closeted cult always labels others as cults... Almost like, like... Like they've been programmed.
Spiritual organization? In our company? where is this? Where? Where? We can't have this. Let's go shut it down immediately. We certainly can't have all these bible thumpers being happy in our company..enjoying themselves...bringing moral up. No sir..not happening on my watch.
