Wild Card Destination du Jour: Southern Indiana's Failed Utopia

quote [ What put Southern Indiana on our radar? Mysterious utopian experiments and end-of-the-world 19th century religious cults of course! The beautiful historic town called New Harmony was once home to a esoteric doomsday group of German pioneers called the Harmonists, who had a taste for quirky architecture and kooky modern ideas like equal rights and free education. ]

Utopia, this is the new world a future for me and you

I am kind of saddened that a lot of these innovative cults were built with a kill switch.
I mean women's rights and advocacy of birth control are fine and dandy.
- but when one of the tenets of your religion is not having children and NOT having sex.. well then these "innovations" just hasten your ending.
Keep the rights and the birth control and let your people fuck.
- although that might lead to dancing and card playing.

I find the codicil about visiting - where you are verboten to use paranormal equipment interesting.
The place must be fucking lousy with ghosts and "emanations"
