When I hear “The Family” I immediately think first of Charles Manson, whose little group of friends were known as “the family” and after the Tate and Lobianco murders, “the Manson family.” Then I think of The Godfather.

Oh, and I _really_ know the YWAM people. I’ve had more than a few in my home when I lived over seas.

I would call them “culty” rather than a full-blown cult. Very different than “The Family.”

That’s why I was surprised to hear the connection.

But I shouldn’t be too surprised, since the conneciton between the GOP and cults, like the Moonies and “The Family” is weird-crazy but seems to be true.

YWAM is very conservative, for sure.

>> Sarah in Santa Cruz says:
>> Ron, not all Christians are like you. Not all are true believers.

Thanks… I think! (“true believer” has a couple of connotations!)

When I was in college I loved to hitch hike and I drifted around a little.

The cults could easily spot me as prime recruitment material and I got to know most of the active groups — including “The Family” which was know as “Children of God” if I have my cults straight.

Every since, I’ve been interested in the cult phenomenon.

humble prediction: hannity will spin obama’s comment on the professor arrest as advocacy that in the normal course of their duties, police may shoot at obama.

#306 That will help tomorrow’s live blog reach Sparta much sooner. Someone needs to bring up the topic and we can all post suggested new Twitter ids for Sarah Palin.
Alas, dumberthandirt is already taken.

Say, WCPT Chicago’s online connection went down. Have to see if I can hear a replay of the show on another website. (Missing last hour and a half or so).

The report is final, but that doesn’t mean it’s final. Remember, we’re talking about Sarah Palin, who thinks finishing her term of governor would be “the quitter’s way out” and dropping out high school does not make her daughter or the baby daddy high school dropouts.
