Rock musician Alice Cooper has
become a member of the Church of Satan????? For years, he has claimed to be a “born-again
Christian.” Cooper’s actual
religious heritage is Bickertonite.
The Bickertonites are a small Trinitarian Mormon sect named for Wlliam
Bickerton, but actually formed by the fascinating Sidney Rigdon. (Rigdon was a
ubiquitous American religious figure from the nineteenth century who was quite
fractious, becoming involved in one religious argument after another and moving
rapidly among religious denominations and then quickly becoming a prominent
leader in each of them. Rigdon was
in rapid succession, a leader among the Baptists, the Campbellites (Disciples
of Christ), the main Joseph Smith Mormon group, and several Mormon schismatic
sects. Rigdon usually ended up
disassociated or excommunicated by his former affiliative groups.)

For the record, many people believe that this is an elaborate April Fools Joke being perpetrated by Alice Cooper for the publicity it will engender.
