Season 4 Episode 3 The Order of The Solar Temple

The Order of the Solar Temple (French: Ordre du Temple solaire, OTS) and the International Chivalric Organization of the Solar Tradition, or simply The Solar Temple, is a cult and religious sect [1] that claims to be based upon the ideals of the Knights Templar. OTS was founded by Joseph di Mambro and Luc Jouret in 1984 in Geneva, as l'Ordre International Chevaleresque de Tradition Solaire (OICTS), and later it was renamed Ordre du Temple Solaire. It is associated with a series of murders and mass suicides that claimed several dozen lives in France, Switzerland, and Canada in 1994 and 1995.[2]

The Good:

Great lightshow.
Very committed followers.

The Bad:

Suicide
Murders
Picking a Anti-Christ who is under 6 months old.

The Culty (is there anything in this cult worth incorporating into our own?):

The Nice Cult takes on Knighting Ceremony. Those Knighted by the Nice Cult will be known as the Knights of Nice.
We also take on calling our meeting place Club Archedia in place of The Man Cave or Dungeon.
