The Process Church Of the Final Judgement

[ichabodius]

Formed in 1963 in London by two disenchanted Scientologistsâ??Mary Ann MacLean, a former call girl from Glasgow, and Robert DeGrimston, a well-educated Englishman of more noble birthâ??the group made unauthorized use of Hubbardâ??s â??E-meterâ?� to identify and exorcise compulsions and complexes. By 1966, the tightly knit group began to believe they were in touch with â??Higher Beingsâ?� and decamped to an abandoned salt mine in Xtul, Mexico, where the last-minute diversion of a powerful hurricane confirmed to the coupleâ??s followers that they were indeed connected to divine forces.

I have a first edition copy of Ed Sanders' "The Family", and he describes the Processeans in his book. Before they sued him and he had to edit for the new edition.

They are coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs. No question about it.

I don't know if it was in The Family or Helter Skelter, but the author stated that Charles Manson may have had ties with The Process. (It could also have been a book by Maury Terry that I read years ago. I can't remember the title and just recalled the author. He tried to tie The Process et al in a conspiracy with David Birkowitz (sp), Manson, and some others. It was fascinating, but I didn't completely buy it.

Edit: It was The Ultimate Evil. I ordered it from amazon.com to scare myself shitless again.
