Herbert’s Big Birthday Bash 2005

This video below was made before YouTube existed back in 2005. The first among many that was critical of the cult. Fast track forward and we see many creators taking their pot shots at Herbert, Pack, little Bobby Thiel, and of course, old 6-pack Flurry and his orangutan son, little Stevie.

The quality of downloads back in those days were of poor quality. I have cleaned this video up somewhat, but I will state: Best viewed NOT in full screen.

Memories of Pasadena

by J. Orlin Grabbe

Quote by David C. Pack

“I want to make a statement about…me…now, if I became deceived, I will never tell you what I’m going to tell you now…I am telling you if I go off into strange ideas, misconduct, rebellion, you name it, don’t follow me. I want to tell you that now, because if I start doing that I’m gonna try to get you to follow me! I’m gonna come to you and tell you it doesn’t apply, it doesn’t mean me, no, no, no, no, no, no, it’s OK to follow me because ABCD and XY and Z. Do you understand what I’m saying? Listen to me now, when I tell you don’t follow me if I go off into weird ideas, or if I get off into other things that are total absolutely unscriptural conduct, because if I do I’m gonna paint it with a different face and try to get you to follow me. Do you understand what I’m saying brethren? Please remember that, because I promise you that if I become deceived, I’ll forget it, and I’ll want you to forget it…And I hope you’ll remember it well enough to quote it right back to me…But I’ll tell you what, I’m not going anywhere.”
