Timecube. One of the strangest cults, largely an internet phenomenon, I have encountered.

Quote:
Time Cube is a website created by Gene Ray to promote a purported theory of everything, which began to gain notoriety in 1997[citation needed].
The Time Cube theory itself is the proposition that time is cubic, a cryptic and ill-defined concept which is a frequent target of Internet humor. The theory has not been published in any peer-reviewed journal and is generally considered nonsense and lacking testable hypotheses. Ray has challenged various authorities to debate the subject, but these challenges are generally ignored or rejected.
Though he is dismissed as a crank[1], Ray is outspoken in defending Time Cube and refers to conspiracy theories in explaining why his ideas are not accepted. Because the academic establishment has paid little attention to his ideas, Ray describes those who oppose or fail to understand the theory as "stupid and evil", and has proclaimed himself a "Doctor of Cubicism" in December 2002. He sometimes goes by the title Dr. Gene Ray - Wisest Human on Earth.
Followers of Time Cube are known as "Cubicists" or "Cubics".
Good for a laugh, at the very least.
