This article describes the cult as "pseudo-Christian". I haven't seen the movies or read the book, so could someone please explain how the cult is "pseudo-Christian"? I mean, it's obviously not Christianity, thus the "pseudo" part, but I don't get how this cult is related to Christianity in any way. I mean, there's nothing in the New Testament about sacrificing adults to people who live in cornfields. I'm not trying to be a smart-aleck. I'm honestly confused about this.

There are various biblical quotes which are reinterpreted by the children. Once they've adopted their new adult-free religon, they choose new biblical names for themselves and their offspring. Also, they "crucify" their victims, a punishment widly associated with this religon. ---Jackel 19:53, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
