140: Faith Consumed: Jim Jones, Heaven’s Gate, and the Rapture Obsession
Description
On this episode of The Wandering Road, Chris is joined by JJ, host of Southern Demonology, for a deep exploration into the darker side of faith and the human need for meaning at the end of days. Together, they unpack the chilling stories of Jim Jones and Heaven’s Gate—two movements that promised salvation but led their followers to tragedy.
The conversation then turns to the growing wave of modern “Rapture” predictions circulating today, and how these claims continue to exploit fear, uncertainty, and devotion in the digital age. Chris and JJ discuss the psychological pull of apocalyptic belief, the danger of unchecked religious authority, and the fine line between faith and fanaticism.
