Poland: Committee Warns against Revival of UFO Sect

WARSAW, Nov 8, 2000 -- (BBC Monitoring) A national
sect-monitoring committee has issued a warning about the revival
of an "apocalyptic Polish sect" called Antrovis. It sees
salvation in the landing of UFOs on a southern Polish mountain
and has been linked to the alleged disappearances of individuals.

[Presenter] The Polish apocalyptic sect Antrovis is renewing its
activities, the Nationwide Committee for Defense against Sects
[OKOPS] is warning. The disciples believe that the world will be
saved by little men from flying saucers. The sect was notorious
at the start of the 1990s, when it was also joined by people with
academic titles. Under pressure from the press, it officially
terminated its activity in 1994.

[Reporter] The sect preaches that little men from flying saucers
who will land on the Sleza mountain [Lower Silesia - southwestern
Poland] will rescue the members of the sect. The rest of the
inhabitants of the earth face extermination.

But can such a faith threaten life and health? For seven years,
this woman has been searching for her son. The 17 year-old
Andrzej attended lectures organized by the sect. he took notes.
In a diary he left behind, his mother read: I can no longer
psychologically bear the pressure of the end of the world. Love
is a destructive force.

[Andrzej's mother - on-screen caption] At a lecture he discovered
that when the spaceships come and the evacuations start, only the
chosen ones who deserve it will be evacuated from the earth and
saved from the earth, that is the members of Antrovis. But they
will only be able to be evacuated alone, without their close ones
and without their families. And that is why it would be best for
them to break off all relations with their families now.

[Ryszard Nowak, head of the OKOPS] It above all leads to a
situation where the adepts give up their property, give their
property to the sect. Secondly, they order people to leave their
family, leave school, work, and come close to human death. If you
have a sick organ, then we will replace it for you.

[Reporter] The Provincial Prosecutor's Office in Szczecin
[northwestern Poland] linked the activities of this sect to the
death of Boguslaw T., who was fished out of the River Oder two
years ago. The man had been castrated.

[Nowak] We have proof that the Antrovis sect is reviving. And the
proof of this is publications, the books that it is publishing
both in Poland and abroad. They also write articles, and in
serious weeklies and monthlies at that. But please note that they
are going to schools, they are going to higher educational
establishments and holding lectures there.

[Reporter] The OKOPS estimates that there are between 500 and
1,000 sects active in Poland. It is enough to have 100 believers
to register a Church, but for an association 15 members are
enough. Nonetheless, most sects do not register their activity,
since this way it is more difficult to prove anything against
them.
