Unlike you wannabes I actually work in the space Industry and its sad to see how the Mars Cult has held back NASA. We would have been on the Moon a decade ago (and ISS never built...) if the SEI hadn't included Mars.
As for the cult, just read the reasons to go to Mars on the Mars Society website
http://www.marssociety.org/about/founding_declaration.asp
"We must go for the opportunity. The settling of the Martian New World is an opportunity for a noble experiment in which humanity has another chance to shed old baggage and begin the world anew; carrying forward as much of the best of our heritage as possible and leaving the worst behind. Such chances do not come often, and are not to be disdained lightly."
Sounds like a utopian cult to me.
And you even have your own songs like any good cult has.

What a laugh you guys are. Now get out of NASA's way so its able to move beyond LEO again!
