Doomsday Cultists Freeze to Death in Montana Snow acclaimedmedia.com HELENA - Authorities are reporting that all 47 members of the 'Earth in the Lurch' cult froze to death yesterday when they ventured into a snow storm wearing only shorts and t-shirts. Said one of the state troopers who helped locate the missing cultists, "I've never seen anything like this. What a waste of human life." The 'Earth in Lurch' cult was headed by 'Jimmy Johnson', a man who religiously followed the writings of Vice President Al Gore. One of the main doctrines of the cult was that the world was going to end on January 1st, 2000 due to global warming. Authorities had a difficult time finding a logical reason to explain why the cultists would leave the safety of their cabins and venture out into the snow. But after doing a thorough search the cult's compound they found a video tape that was recorded just hours before the cultist's demise. The video features 'Jimmy Johnson' delivering a sermon on global warming. In the sermon Johnson says, "According to the Gospel of Gore, the world is getting hotter and hotter and hotter. We know that this is true. Therefore, the snow that you see outside is nothing more than a trick of the devil. We are going to expose the devil's lies by stripping down to shorts, t-shirts and flip-flops. We are then going to hike down to the lake and do some swimming and have a barbecue." Unfortunately, the cultists never made it to the lake. With temperatures dipping to 60 below zero, all of the cultists died of hypothermia within 7 minutes. Said one state trooper, "I never did understand those 'global warming fanatics'. I always thought they were gullible but I never realized that they were this stupid."
