The horrific thing is Jim Jones was a member of a so-called “Mainline” Protestant denomination. In fact his congregation was largest contributor to the “Disciples of Christ(Christian Church)”denomination. And Jones was known to be a marxist sex-pervert before his congregation joined the denomination. He raped children of both sexes. All of which was overlooked because his politically correctness and anti-racism.
Jim Jones Jr. adopted Afro son of tells us his father was good guy because he hated "racism"...
My Name is Jim Jones
Twenty-five years after the cult leader who presided from this the adopted son who carries his name is alive and well and chair ordered the largest murder-suicide in modern history, has his own remarkable story to tell.
...
Jim says he had "a great childhood"—a deceptively simple phrase laden with positive thoughts, gratitude, and a preference not to dwell on his father's flaws. "I worked hard to be number one," he says. "I don't think my father loved me more than the others. I think I brought him more joy because I was always grateful for everything he did." What he remembers is tree houses, swimming pools, playing basketball with his brothers. He didn't even mind the long weekend bus trips into San Francisco, where his father preached at a temple on Geary Boulevard. He would do his homework on the bus, and one year, he says proudly, even with all that traveling, he never missed a day of school.
...
The popular mind conflates Jonestown with its apocalyptic end. Jim equates it with Peoples Temple and its shining dream of racial harmony and mutual care: "I still believe in what Jonestown was trying to do." And in his way, he's still crusading for social change—not by creating a new world in a faraway land, but by staying in the Bay Area with Erin, as an interracial couple raising their kids in a diverse environment. "You open yourself to other people," he says, "and you pray and you hope that we live an example that is infectious or that creates energy to change other people."

One can learn more about this sordid topic - the liberal-progressivist-Communist infiltration (and then transmutation) of Christian churches - in the following links:
The manual then named two such identified Communist ministers — the Reverend Eliot While, and the Reverend Claude C. Williams. It was Williams who once boasted: "Denominationally I am a Presbyterian, religiously a Unitarian, and politically I am a Communist. I am not preaching to make people good or anything of the sort, I'm in the church because I can reach people easier that way and get them organized for Communism."

Mrs. Jim Jones told The New York Times in 1977 that her husband had decided when he was 21 years old that the way to achieve his Marxist goals was to mobilize people through religion. "Jim used religion to try to get some people out of the opiate of religion," she said, adding that he had once slammed a Bible on the table and said, "I've got to destroy this paper idol!" (New York Times, 11/26/78, p. 20.) The Times informs us that Jones "was openly contemptuous of religion among his associates." (New York Times, 11/21/78, p. A 16). But he used religion to entice new recruits and to deceive naive outsiders.

Modern Christians are, generally speaking, far too naivë lot. They need to become less trusting, less "ignorant of Satan's devices". (2. Cor. 2:11)
The early Christian church had to fight off deceitful Gnostic heretics (who preached one message to the masses and another to the inner circle) almost all the time.
