Dangerous Cults In The United States : This 14 page paper
answers the question as to whether or not dangerous cults
should be legal in the United States. The answer is not
surprisingly complex as the question involves many issues, most
predominately Constitutional freedoms. Groups such as
Heaven's Gate, EST, Santeria, the Ku Kux Klan and the Right
to Life movement are just some of the groups discussed.
Satanic song lyrics are also addressed as part of the issue. The
paper concludes that while truly dangerous cults should be
outlawed, this should be done very carefully as not to infringe
on first amendment rights. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Christianity & Vampires : A 5 page paper investigating
whether there is any connection between vampirism and
Christianity. Vampire census-takers have identified several
hundred individuals around the world who claim to be physical
(but not spiritual) vampires. That there is paranormal activity in
the world there is no doubt. God has promised it, and the Bible
describes some of it. But even with all the evidence of the
paranormal and of the occult, plus the Bible's confirmation that
it will indeed occur, there is no evidence that any comparison
between vampirism and Christianity needs even to be made.
The idea of the "living dead" is inconsistent with the most basic
teachings of the Bible, and there are far more other, real
occurrences of the paranormal that are not. Bibliography lists 7
sources. Chrivamp.wps
