I never said there are no evil leaders. I'm suggesting that it's a lame attempt to duck responsibility by blaming it all on the leaders. Like I said, w/o FGA followers, those leaders would just be crazies talking to themselves in the park or better yet in prison for what would have perhaps been only one or two isolated crimes. As it happened, there were a bunch of FGA's ready and willing to give credence to their insanity and put feet to their policies. It takes two to tango. So we have the dangerous and depraved leaders who came up with this abusive system, and we had the volunteer culties who help perpetuate it. As for the self-flagellation...I don't know who it was who said that. I am of the opinnion that a little bit would be good for FGAs, and that there is not enough of it going on. Those who realize their error and are trying to make amends, are doing the right thing.Do I applaud them, ? No. It's the least they can do. As for wanting blood? The blood has been shed. If someone had a part in in that abuse,(and yes, that includes those who supported Berg, Zerby, and co. for all those years)they'll get no kudos from me for doing the very least that sould be done.
