Aleph (Formerly AUM) (New Religious Movement)
Feb 10th, 2010 by MrCult
Japanese new religious movement founded by Asahara Shoko (b. 1955 as Matsumoto Chizuo) in 1987. It contained elements of Hinduism and Buddhism and was founded on the millenarian expectation of a series of disasters that would bring an end to this world and inaugurate a new cosmic cycle. In 1995 its members released nerve gas into the Tokyo subway system, killing 12 people and injuring some 5500. The group has been linked with other nerve-gas incidents and violent crimes. It claimed some 50000 members, mostly in Russia, at the time of the gas attack. Membership collapsed in the wake of the attack, but it had grown to more than 1500 members by the early 21st century. The group changed its name to Aleph in 2000. More than 10 AUM members were sentenced to death for their involvement in the gassing incident, including Asahara, who in 2004 was found guilty of masterminding the attack. This is a doomsday religion that takes the guise of something else. Dare I say cult? These religions base themselves on an end times scenario, which can bring about feelings of panic and drive people to do things they may not normally do.

Of all the peoples in the world, Japanese society I think is one the most interesting. Lots of tradition yet a thriving underground that is ironically kinds is traditional when it comes to secret societies within Japan. They do not have a bill of rights, and there is unquestionably a lot of oppression against races, I knew someone that had mixed kids and the Japanese kids would discriminate them. I heard that it is very peaceful there, and law violators can be beaten by officers, unfortunately.
Someone knows their stuff
yes indeed
This was Aum Shinrikyo?( um, shin-ri-ki-o ) or something like that.
