She was a narcissistic, delusional leader whose religious hallucinations were woven into her complex "salad bar" of beliefs. If you were interested in any type of religion, she had an aspect of the one she created that was cobbled together from everything from Helena Blavatsky, the Catholic Church, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam.... you name it, she wove it in, and then claimed she had the "new dispensation" for all religious knowledge.
Her name is Elizabeth Clare Prophet, and her cult was first called Summit Lighthouse, now is called Church Universal and Triumphant.
She claimed to be the current Messenger of God, displacing Jesus and all previous messengers, and tried to groom her son Sean to be the next "messenger".
Sean now has a web site that discusses his life and what it was like to be brought up in the cult. They were treated like little gods, so Sean does not even know how much damage the cult did to people. Her cult was the reason I began helping people get out of cults, as it was a five year old who was molested by a pedophile member of the cult while her parents were members, that made me become aware of CUT and other cults were really doing to their members.
Sean Prophet's web site is called Black Sun Journal. Sean is making a film about the time that CUT built (failed) fallout shelters when his mother predicted nuclear destruction by the Soviets (late 80's, early 90's)
