Description

They went into the jungle looking for paradise. They found hell. What draws people into cults? What is it about our psychology that yearns for something a cult promises to fulfill? This week, Drs. Micono and Morelos use the Jonestown massacre as a starting point to look at why people fall into cults, and why so many cults eventually turn dark.
