Please let me know if this has been covered on ATS before, even supermods aren't always that super when it comes to searching.

I have never heard of these people before, but they remind me of that Heaven's Gate cult. This is a little alarming that they are all planning to meet, what if the world doesn't end on July 5th like they think it will, will they commit suicide or do something worse?

SubGenius UFO Cult Prepares For July Apocalypse

SUBGENIUS UFO CULT PREPARES FOR END OF THE WORLD

CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 3, 2006: The Church of the SubGenius has announced that the end of the world will take place on Wednesday, July 5, 2006. In preparation for the fulfillment of this doomsday prophecy, the Church is requesting that all of its members participate in a bizarre religious ceremony taking place in upstate New York, during the final weekend before the arrival of the apocalypse.

Since its inception in 1953, Church founder J.R. "Bob" Dobbs has predicted that a fleet of flying saucers will arrive at the beginning of July to destroy the worldwide Conspiracy against the Church of the SubGenius, while all ordained SubGenius ministers will be rescued by escape vessels piloted by the Alien Sex Goddesses, also known as the Xists.

The Church is inviting all of its members worldwide to gather together for the final hours in Sherman, New York from Thursday, June 29 to July 5, at a clothing-optional outdoor campground called Brushwood Folklore Center.


these are indeed some scary times we live in, but these people are not helping, they are actually making it worse for themselves and their relatives. I hope for their sakes they are right and we are wrong and the apocalpyse comes as a surprise to the rest of us. Btw I'll make sure to party hard this 4th of July, since it could be my last.

****I had no idea that this "cult" was a parody of a cult, but now that we know it's a joke, could the people reading this thread please remember that...it's not real. well it's real in that a bunch of nutty people will get together however they don't believe the world will really end.*****

That was easier to find than I thought it would be.

I visited their website.. and left absolutly humored beyond belief..

Here are some commericals they link on their website..

video.google.com...

Here's some more info:

Pity the poor human Earth Pink who comes looking for a SIMPLE, SHORT EXPLANATION of The Church of the SubGenius™, one that he or she can UNDERSTAND QUICKLY. If the Church could provide THAT, it would be bigger than Islam or Christianity by now -- and probably much, much worse.

A True SubGenius, however, understands EVERYTHING, INSTANTLY upon exposure to the Word or even just the Face of Dobbs.

The next step after reading the Sacred Pamphlets (links above) would be to procure THE BOOK OF THE SUBGENIUS and its companion volume, REVELATION X, from our shops, EBay, or better bookstores anywhere. (The feature-length video, ARISE!, will do in a pinch for illiterates.) There are samples of these masterpieces and other primal SubGenius liturgy in our CLASSICS section.

We also offer several SLAQs and FAQs from various SubGeniuses who, over the years, did their very best to explain the unexplainable.
