• Pedestrian’s article The Heaven’s Gate Website Is Still Active & They Will Send You Video Tapes
• This article from The Escondido Grapevine is interesting because it talks, among other stuff, a little bit about how uncomfortable it is that many of Heaven’s Gate’s beliefs were similar to those in mainstream religions.
• This article is another one from The Escondido Grapevine and you’re going to want to read through to the bottom and then check out the FLAME WAR between Sawyer and somebody else in the comments!
