there was news that was broadcast - quote, unquote - broadcast by jim jones. and because he had total control of the media, for example, he told the community that african americans were being rounded up and put in concentration camps in america. and there was really no way that they could verify the truth or falsity of that. he suggested that world war iii was about to begin, and they had really no way of knowing that that was not the case. and so in a situation of that kind of isolation, you obviously look to your leader, and you look to each other for support and understanding of the events that are going on around you. >> when you look over the basic teachings of the people's temple, they're very sound doctrines. what takes sound, humanitarian - based doctrines and turns them into such frightening belief? >> i think that people's temple and the people who were part of it felt under intense pressure and attack by the outside world, both from ex-members, which are called apostates now, the media, and government, which was investigating the organization. and

the biggest mass suicide in history, jim jones. which i call more of a massacre. the pple's temple. one calamity after the next as the dream of the 1960's starts to fall apart. the triumph of san francisco is that it gets through the dark days and ultimately wins. tavis: you also talk about sports and its relevance. i will come back to that because i do not want to lose sight of -- you suggested, talking about a rights, that just because obama express is a personal opinion, it prevailed. i think because one guy, even if he is the president, says he is for the marriage, i do not think that has prevailed. >> you are right. when president kennedy spoke about civil rights in his presidency, he backed it up. i think that is what the president needs to do to make sure it does become a rite that every american enjoys. but it is a huge step. there is a connection between his decision and san francisco. let's not forget gavin newsome who endorsed the rights for gays to marry in city hall. he instructed city hall to begin issuing licenses back then. the democratic party went nuts. barney fran

profound life questions; somebody is in there, somebody is ruining it, we saw a bit of that with jim jones as we were moving though. go ahead follow up, ron. >> and still on that point, when people play bible tennis i smack you with one and they smack another one in back and so forth -- [laughter] i found out not to long ago that that is called sword ledge. in other words you can go to the bible if you can prove just about anything you want. you know god has feathers because under his wings he will cover you and things like that. but there is, having come out of that, kind of a back ground. there is a thing; they call it "laying a fleece before god" it goes back to gideon and so forth. what you do is you flop the bible open and put your finger down if you've got a particular problem and you read it and that's your answer. so there is a story on that basis of a guy that was having trouble, and he put his finger in the bible and it says judas went out and hang himself. [laughter] oh no, that can't be for me. so hey looks at that again and put his finger down and it said go thou and do like w

did jim jones in fact have an apocalyptic theodicy? something to keep in mind. but let's check the roll-in. >> looking out on the peaceful jezreel valley on the sabbath, we see people coming home from the beach, crops growing in the field- indeed a peaceful scene. but as we've mentioned, this is armageddon- the field of armageddon, where the mother of all battles will take place. now it's an interesting case. we've mentioned that this is a kind of eschatological myth, but with an addition to it, an apocalyptic theodicy. what we mean by a theodicy is an explanation of why it is that humans suffer if god is all good and god's all powerful. and we've spoken about the fact that this myth is drawn from revelation in the bible, in which the explanation is, well, people suffer because an evil force is at lurk in the world, but that evil force will be vanquished, will be beaten down by the forces of good and the elect, the faithful that will be taken up into heaven. and so in an odd sort of twist, it's okay to suffer, it's okay to bear under the changes, it's okay to ex

jim was a product of the active and civically minded political culture of lyman county and i was from next door jones county. despite these counties' sports rivalries over the year, jim took me under his wing and introduced me to the american political process. if not for jim abdnor, i would not be spanned standing here today --, standing here today. after a basketball game when i was a freshman in high school, jim struck up a conversation with me that would dhaing change the course of my life. i went to work for jim as a legislative assistant when he was a senator and later at the small business administration. when i first ran for office, jim's guidance and support were invaluable to me. this past weekend, hundreds of south dakotans came out to honor jim be a -- jim abdnor and remember his love for his state. his funeral was held in a lutheran church in pierre, where he first served in statewide offer as lieutenant governor. he was buried outside kenne of bec near where his immigrant father homesteaded. jim leaves us with many legacies and i want to messengers a few of them here today. first and fo
