Blast from the past…

The Worldwide church of God attempted to annihilate peoples personality, individuality, will, and character. The stranded souls that hitched their wagon to this organization unknowingly supported a power-hungry pharisaic and fastuous authoritative cult leader and his son, Garner Ted Armstrong. For all the alarums and excursions, the fact remains that without knowing it, we nurtured these two ungrateful incubi's. For that I can only ask for forgiveness. After my WCG experience, I went to college to educate myself so I would have a greater understanding of the world about me and to understand why I ever fell for HWA's scam religion. This lead me to the conclusion that the appropriate action to take, in my judgment, is to provide people with opportunities to learn, develop, and exercise their potential as human beings, by freeing them from men who exploit and abuse them. This website and others are my vehicle to do just that.

In keeping with the spirit of the piece, it should be noted that Easter is also the time of year when the Pope comes out of hibernation to make an appearance.
Everyone can wear white now, until Labor Day.
By coincidence or design the Pope did make an appearance—his final appearance too! Now we wait to see who will replace him…
If you want to see a movie about how choosing a new Pope is done, you can watch the magnificent but controversial movie, Conclave, at Amazon Prime:
Conclave
Though, you might not like the surprise ending… something about… um… intersexual or something….
@Snarcastic– thank you for the Amazon recommendation, I thought it was rather strange– the whole timing of Easter and the Pope’s demise. I’m also going to be watching Season 2 of:
Haunted on Netflix….
The Cult of Torture “…Episode Is About a Real Evangelical Doomsday Cult.”
We (myself, brother, mom and dad) joined the cult in 1969 or so. My paternal grandparents were the members we followed in. After 5 years of incessant tithing, to the poor house, my mom started begging herself off from going by being in bed and “sick.” When I graduated from 8th grade, I informed my parents I did not wish to attend anymore. I hated the way, everything was dictated to be completely opposite to way mainstream churches operated. And we were poor….
It’s gratifying that you have left the cult insanity. Good for you.
You might be interested to know that in the United States, for the past 75 years, May has been designated Mental Health Awareness Month.
Good luck to you all.
