About This Book
*The Pleasure of Fiends* deserves to be classified as a hallmark reference for the human traits and evils that can lead any person into the most irrational evils. These things come from a darkness that is in every person, but which we have the power to exercise freely to nurture into a deeper darkness that can connect us with evil, or to subdue and replace with an enlightenment that is also available to every person.
Having investigated and exposed Jim Jones and his cultic temple of self-worship, along with its adherents, for eight years prior to the Guyana mass murder, Mr. Conn is uniquely qualified to write this most informative of books. He reveals what it is that persuades highly educated academics, theologians and social scientists to accept and indulge the cultic evils that make possible the Jim Joneses of this world.
In the book's appendices, he includes his essay, "Jonestown — Its Portent Has Arrived," in which he warns of the present threat of a much more insidious and dangerous cult that has engulfed half the population of our once great nation and that threatens the very existence of America and the western moral civilization. This spiritual insanity which ignores the obvious truths and any absolute frame of reference has implanted a greater embodiment of a new Jim Jones which can lead the nation into mass spiritual suicide.
