Universal Church Of The Kingdom of God

Any of you heard of this group? It looks like they have taken the Mormon model -- tithing, building temples, and so on...

Interesting

Competitors in the godbothering industry are always studying each other's methods. I think Mormonism has been studied by the Unification Church (Moonies), SDAs and the Children of God (now the Family International).

Think of the churches as retailers of religious products and services and you can see how they influence and derive from one another.
