I would like to thank you for the AMA. I am currently working on an undergraduate thesis on Jonestown. One quote I have come across from Jones was
"What you need to believe in is what you can see ... If you see me as your friend, I'll be your friend. As you see me as your father, I'll be your father, for those of you that don't have a father ... If you see me as your savior, I'll be your savior. If you see me as your God, I'll be your God"
Can you verify this statement from Jones or recall anything similar? It would really help with my thesis. Thank you for sharing.
