Ira Einhorn

About this page



Self-proclaimed '60s counterculture guru from Philadelphia. He fled the USA when he was charged with killing his girlfriend, in 1977. Sixteen years later, he was convicted in absentia of murder. Einhorn was arrested in France in June 1997. Initially France refused to extradite him due to France's laws against trials in absentia, and Europe's rejection of the death penalty. After assurances from the USA that Einhorn would not face the death penalty if convicted, he was extradicted in 2002 and, in a subsequent trial, convicted and sentenced to life without parole.

Apologetics Index (apologeticsindex.org, countercult.com, cultfaq.org) provides 39,900+ pages of research resources on religious cults, sects, new religious movements, alternative religions, apologetics-, anticult-, and countercult organizations, doctrines, religious practices and world views. These resources reflect a variety of theological and/or sociological perspectives.

The site provides information that helps equip Christians to logically present and defend the Christian faith, and that aids non-Christians in their comparison of various religious claims.
