Steve Allen
on Entertainment Tonight

April 1, 1997
ET

On April 1, in the wake of the recent Heaven's Gate cult suicides, Entertainment Tonight featured Steve Allen, co-chairman of CSICOP's Council for Media Integrity. He spoke about his own experience in 1971 when his son joined The Church of Armageddon, "a cult fanatically devoted to the teachings of Jesus Christ". His son remained in the cult for eleven years.

Steve Allen's book Beloved Son: A Story of the Jesus Cults details his experiences.
