The Cypherpunks - Heaven's Gate - Solar Temple - W

Wired,

If you like weird connections, how about a Cypherpunks-Heaven's Gate
link? If you like really weird connections, how about a Cypherpunks-
Heaven's Gate-Solar Temple link? If you like really, really weird
connections, how about a Cypherpunks-Heaven's Gate-Solar Temple- Waco
link?

Lest you think I jest, let me explain that what I am about to tell you
is fairly easy to verify and document, and is not based on vague
allusions to some psychic vibrations from the comet, which seem to be
rather commonplace lately.

In the early 1970's there was a small group in Canada, known as the
Bartonian Metaphysical Society. The group was joined by an individual
named C.J. Parker, who had just had his first experience of "the end of
the world" as a member of Herbert W. Armstrong's Worldwide Church of
God.

Parker became a teacher and leader in the group, which soon became the
Institute for Applied Metaphysics, with metaphysical retreats in
Saskatchewan, Ontario and Quebec. There were often UFO reports
surrounding the dates of their intensive seminars in Eastern Canada,
which received press coverage, I believe.

Parker was involved, according to both himself and many others, in the
founding of the New Covenant Club during his involvement with IAM.
This was centered around the belief that the "old covenant" with God,
which involved circumcision, had now been replaced with a "new
covenant," which involved vasectomies.

Later, some of the Eastern leaders began indicating that if vasectomies
were a good way of indicating one's dedication to spirituality in the
end-times, then castration was even better.

Parker was soon involved in a second "end of the world" when Winifred
Barton made her prediction in the mid-to-late 1970's. After her
prediction appeared (to some) not to come true, then many left the
group and quite a few migrated to other groups, including the Solar
Temple.

Parker migrated to Texas, where he was involved in the music business,
and in running clubs for mob interests. He managed clubs in Waco and
Killeen, Texas, where he apparently became involved with David Koresh,
although that might have been at a later date.

He was arrested and convicted in Bell County, Texas for assault on
police officers there, sometime around 1980.

Parker became a recording artist and soon afterward moved to Tucson,
Arizona, where he continued to dabble in music and metaphysics,
travelling across the SouthWestern U.S., as well as up and down the
west coast.

He started a computer company in Tucson, called "Pearl Harbor
Computers," which was based on the belief that computers were the work
of Satan, that Bill Gates and Microsoft were tenacles of the Satan, and
that those who wished to fight evil must dedicate themselves to
promoting other operating systems, UNIX in particular.

Parker apparently fathered an organization called the "Circle of
Eunuchs" that was dedicated to recruiting individuals who had the
skills and the intelligence to develop systems and methodologies which
could serve to work against what he saw as the plans of Satan to bring
domination over the whole earth

At various times, he has had vehicles registered in the states which
were his main recruiting area: Texas, Arizona, California, New Mexico,
and Oregon. (He also made limited recruiting trips to Germany, Poland,
and, I believe, Russia.)

Parker spent time in California where he was in contact with Do, who
shared his fetish for mixing computers and spirituality, and it was
apparently Parker who introduced him to the concepts underlying the New
Covenant Club. Parker and Do also shared an affinity for mixing
spirituality and alien theories, and decided that the Internet was
going to be the battleground of the future in the fight between good
and evil.

Parker was also involved with a group in Berkeley, California, Basis,
Inc., which was heavily involved in a Unix time-sharing enterprise and
gave Parker access to a wide variety of young students and programmers
to introduce to his belief system.

Parker named the evil protagonist in the manuscript after the login
name for one of Basis' founders, "Gomez." Parker wrote the book under
the pseudonym of "son of gomez," as Basis' Gomez was his mentor in the
world of UNIX.

Parker was responsible for a manuscript titled "The Xenix Chainsaw
Massacre" that contained a character, Bubba Rom Dos, which was loosely
based on Do, including veiled references to his sexual inclination
toward youngsters. Among those in the Circle of Eunuchs, it was also
referred to as Part I of "The True Story of the Internet," which they
foresaw as the vehicle that would prove the manuscript prophetic.

Parker and his tenacles used the Internet to quietly spread the
manuscript among those thought to be potential recruits, even as Do's
group began making their impact on the Internet.

Parker believed that Phil Zimmerman's troubles were a result of his
group using Zimmerman's PGP to spread the manuscript secretly across
the Internet. He apparently impressed upon Do the need to use PGP to
secure any communications which were of a nature that they could cause
undue trouble for groups which were working against Satan and Gates.

Parker's second manuscript, Part II , began as "TV World" and later was
changed to "WebWorld and the Mythical Circle of Eunuchs."

This manuscript was apparently supposed to be converted to hypertext,
with complete graphics, by Higher Source, and several chapters were in
the works, but about a week before the El Rancho suicides, Parker was
told that he should go ahead and release it in its present form,
because Higher Source would not be in a position to complete the work.

Parker began converting the second manuscript to hypertext himself and
has had members of his organization releasing it on the Cypherpunks
list. Chapters of the manuscript have been released from various
points in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., and Russia.

Although the manuscript had already been completed around a year before
this, Parker, after receiving word to begin its release, began making
_changes_ in the manuscript, apparently as a result of no longer having
a need to so heavily disguise the connection between the Circle of
Eunuchs and Do.

A prologue was written for "WebWorld," sent to the Cypherpunks list on
March 18, 1997, in which the opening strains contained the quote, "Why
didn't I _do_ something?" The word "do" was in bold hypertext.

Then, the next word in bold format was the word _me_, indicating that
the first bold word should be pronounced as in the musical notes, do,
re, me.

The sentence containing the world _me_? It was a reference to Do soon
being 'picked up,'

"This time, they are coming for _me_."

And the new opening sentence of the manuscript? A veiled reference to
the fact that those left behind had been warned of their last chance to
'escape' the fate that awaits them. "The great tragedy of it, is that
it didn't have to happen. Not at all... we were warned."

The URL's of the manuscripts are:
http://bureau42.base.org/public/webworld/
http://bureau42.base.org/public/xenix/xenbody.html

They are apparently hosted by David E. Smith <[email protected]> I
don't believe that he is a member of Parker's inner circle, although he
does have many connections to hackers and phreaks in the Edmonton,
Alberta area.

Except for the prologue, the sections of the original manuscript seem
to be in small print, with the newly written sections in large print.
The new sections appear to use the Cypherpunks as analogous to the
space aliens, and a new character, Jonathan, representing one of the
Heaven's Gate members, is added.

"He rode the river of tears once again, only this time the journey was
_toward_ the CypherPunks, and toward freedom."

It is my understanding that the "Magic Circle" is quite active in both
Western Canada and the Southwest U.S. They seem to be a very secretive
organization with ties to a number of groups, including the Solar
Temple cult in Quebec, and a Diamond System (?) Freudian-Sufi sect
centered in the Bay area.

I dropped all involvement with these people a year or so ago, as I
decided that involvement with them is unhealthy. I hope that you will
make an effort to check out what I have told you, and perhaps expose
any activities which could lead to more deaths and castrations.

I don't want to be involved with anything further to do with them, as I
am uneasy about being connected with them in any way, shape, or form,
although I still keep track of their activities through certain members
who are on the periphery of their organizations.

C.J. Parker is a nome-de-plume he took on as a musician, and I can't
recall his real name, but it shouldn't be too difficult to find, given
the fact that he has a criminal record in the U.S. which should link
the pseudonym with his birth name. He also might be located by
tracking him through his record releases, which were done in Canada, I
believe.
