Oh, another cult?
  ...anyhow

edit: I don't want to sound cynical. But people have been looking for meaning in meaningless shit forever, and they love most the illusion of interacting (ouija bord). My favorite I heard in a radio show many years back, about people who'd listen to radio noise until they heard something in it, which they claimed were messages from $deity or departed ones etc. They played back some recordings on loop, and if you knew what you were listening for, you could hear it, too.

Monkeys on typewriters, have they written Shakespeare's works yet?
