The Making Of A Cult
While living together with Mary Brunner, Manson was said to have brought home lots of other women to live with them. By this time, Manson considered himself a “Guru”, teaching about Scientology, which he had learned while incarcerated, as well as taking teachings from the Process Church. They believed that Satan and Christ would come together at the end of the world to pass judgment on everyone. He even implied that he was Jesus, sharing a story of seeing himself nailed to the cross.
