There's a link on the site to the Cult News Network:

The Cult News Network is a daily listing of interesting links about cults, controversial groups and ideological movements. Links are submitted by the general public, and the most interesting submissions are selected to appear on the home page by a site administrator.

The purpose of the Network is twofold: First, it provides a resource for people interested in controversial groups. News searches such as Google News are terrific sources of current cult informaiton, but by nature are limited to newspapers and other common journalism sources. The Cult News Network receives submissions from countless sharp-eyed Internet users all over the world, casting a wider net than general news services and spotlighting overlooked, hard-to-find information.

Thanks for this thread, DoYouEverWonder. Fascinating, frightening stuff. Doesn't appear to be just one little group of 'kooks' that can be disregarded.
