Who Was Historical Cult Leader Jim Jones?
Jim Jones is the perfect example of how a leader doesn't have a merit floor. He was one of the most persuasive and skilled narcissists as a cult leader that we have seen for a long time.
Jim Jones, byname of James Warren Jones, was an American cult leader who promised his followers a utopia in the jungles of South America after proclaiming himself the messiah of the Peoples Temple, a San Francisco-based evangelist group. He ultimately led his followers into a mass suicide, which left more than 900 dead and came to be known as the Jonestown Massacre on November 18, 1978, represented the largest number of American civilian casualties in a single non-natural event.
