I doubt it. Andy tends to resent successful people who do things better than he can. He's super petty about JKR, for example, and makes a point of saying he only "skimmed" HP and actually doesn't like it very much.

I think he resents the fact that he (in his view) has to play second fiddle to whoever's playground he plays in. He wouldn't model his cult activity after someone else's actual cult. They probably have similarities because all cults play on similar vulnerabilities in their members.
