Cult leader Tony Alamo has appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court in the hope it will overturn a ruling in a civil lawsuit against him.

And the Moonies, whose failed ‘Messiah’ recently died, have put on another mass wedding.

A mother who exposed her 7-year-old daughter to bloody religious initiation rituals that included making her watch a chicken being sacrificed and feeding the girl its heart pleaded guilty in state court Monday to cruelty and neglect of a child.

The rituals were associated with the Palo Mayombe religion.
