The 15 Most Famous Cults in History
Order of the Solar Temple
Founded in 1984 by Joseph Di Mambro and Luc Jouret, this weird cult is based upon the belief that Knights Templar still exists and that converted worshippers must ascend into heaven to receive salvation. Related to several mass suicides in Switzerland and Canada, this cult made the headlines in 1994 when they “sacrificed” an infant, as they believed it to be the anti-Christ.
