Icelandic cult leader sentenced to 27 years in prison for slavery

The Icelandic Christian cult Krossinn has been found guilty of enslaving it’s parishioners by an Icelandic court today. The cult leaders have been found guilty of systematically brainwashing it’s followers with a highly effective psychiatric conditioning that, according to the court, has been going on since 1990.

According to the court ruling, psychiatric conditioning took place for over 15 years up until 2005 when the police forced it’s way into the cult’s headquarters to arrest it’s leaders. Apparently the leaders where prepared for invasion, since they had installed various booby traps around the building.

One trap ignited into the face of one Mr. Gunnar Hnjóðsson, an officer off the law, extracting a navy blue colour all over his face. Mr. Hnjóðsson had to take a one year leave of absence because of the incident. Apparently he is still not rid of the entire blue colour from his face, two years later. In a comment made to Surtur, Mr. Hnjóðsson said “I could not leave my home for the first 3 months.” And added “I looked like I’d just taken a part in a Blue Man Group performance.”

According to the ruling, the leaders of the cult conditioned about 200-300 followers to perform various deeds for them, some of whom where to perform illegal acts against state and country. As a consequence, the investigative department of the police department has solved at least 150 previously unsolved crimes, some of them being prostitution.

It turns out that the leaders where just lining they’re own pockets with money while turning they’re followers into criminals. As one follower stated “We have been made to be fools!” While other say “He is still our leader, nothing will change that!” Inside sources informed Surtur about an upcoming demonstration, but were reluctant to disclose any information as to where and when.

Krossinn has about 5000 members that donate 25% of they’re earnings to the religious cult. When asked why people have to give so much, a spokesman for the Krossinn said that they would like to be sure that they’re members where true believers, true believers do not worship money, he added.

Some of the religious leaders around the country have stated that they don’t want to have anything to do with the followers of the cult. Some have even said that they do not want them into they’re church.

The Icelandic government is looking at some tough questions to answer because of this fiasco. This brings into the light the governments sponsorship of religion and religious organisation that have been debated about for many years. The fact that the government was sponsoring the cult with money at the same time the cult members where being brainwashed to act out against the government. The Prime minister was quoted saying “This threatens our core moral fibre as society.

some of the terible alegations here are plain wrong. like that we had to give some money to mr.Gunnar.

the true is that most give it on theire own free will.

..and prostetution part is somewhat not realy within the group of Krossinn, it is actually a supgrub followers , a deeper consentration camp where the rules are more open towards donation and the way they are executed.
this sistership cult group sometime called Kossinn is not under Gunnars demand att all. it is his mother that runs this cult,
so my qwestion is . if you do nothing to explane this, how can we take your anty-critian wievpoint seriously?
