Love Sex Fear Death

Love Sex Fear Death is the shocking, surprising, and secretive inside story of The Process Church, which was later transformed into Foundation Faith of the Millennium, and most recently as the Utah-based animal sanctuary, Best Friends. Hundreds of black-cloaked devotees, often wearing a satanic ''Goat of Mendes'' and a stylised mandala, swept the streets of London, New York, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, and Toronto, selling magazines and books with titles like Fear and Humanity is the Devil. And within the group''s ''Chapters,'' members would participate in ''Midnight Meditations'' beneath photographs of the Christ-like leader. A short narrative history by Timothy Wyllie, a formative member of the Process and Foundation Faith organisations, Love Sex Fear Death also includes interviews with other former Processeans and never-before-seen photographs. New to this edition will be select court transcripts from the 1972 suit where the Process Church sued Ed Sanders for libel in England (and won.) The expanded edition also features a new introduction and update about the Process Church and key contributors to the Church and its history.
