Alternative Religion/ features/ Cults/ Doomsday Cults/ Order of the Solar Temple

The Order of the Solar temple, or International Chivalric Organization of the Solar Tradition, believed that a death by fire meant reincarnation in the Sirius star system. This pseudo-Templar group attracted many influential people, and is still in operation, despite the mass murder/suicide of 1994.
