When you say "rogue Mormons who practice this" I hope you realize that Mormon fundamentalists number in the tens of thousands, including some who are in hiding from the authorities, much like certain Family personalities. The parallels to Berg and TF are amazing. And now reading these passages blows my mind. I know that I must have read that stuff at one time, but did not have the advantage then of being outside of that closed mind-set. Berg was as perverted as Joseph Smith and as those passages point out,he took notes on how to create his own cult. Smith was so successful that the mainstream Mormon church is considered the quintessential made-in-America religion.
