The question I have is how can ANYBODY outside of the family see it as anything but perverted and insane? And why would anybody be associated to it if they are ashamed of it? My answer re: Berg: IMO, He was a severely deranged psychopath who harmed sooo many people, even his own children and grandchildren. And all in the name of God and Jesus. And his number one mistress, maria is equally as deranged. Why would anyone tithe to that. I read something she wrote that was posted on a board and I thought MAN, this is really painful wading through this thick swamp of repetitive sewage. Hope people reading these comments that are currently in, can listen to their gut feelings and get out! Think critically.
That means to read and think about what you are reading and what your gut is telling you about it.
Do you believe it really? Have you read James Penn's letters? Other ex-members histories while in? How long do you want to invest in something that will not be there for you when you burn out or get disabled or whatever?
