David Berg founded the Children of God under the tenets of "God is love"...and ended up taking his interpretation of god's love waaaaay past the point of sanity. Preaching that sex was how you showed love, the cult encouraged married couples to copulate with others in the cult, that women share the word of god with strangers by engaging in sexual relations, and even told parents that they should engage in sexual activity with their own children, and the children of others in the organization....

Happy Halloween, spooky babes. Thank you for your patience as I slowly made my big butt back to the pod. I'm here now! <3 Some houses are occupied by the restless spirits of those who have passed within their walls. They leave signs of their presence if you pay close enough attention, sometimes they even have enough energy to touch you, or move something in your home. Other effects can be more insidious...a dark thought injected into the brain, a cloud of hopelessness left lingering in the...

Thank you for patiently waiting, my babes. This is the last solo episode for awhile! Pardon my cold on this. <3 The Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God used fear of apocalyptic proportions to persuade its followers to give up all their earthly possessions and devote themselves to the cult. The abusive tactics are similar to many others we've discussed on the show before, and sadly, this didn't end any better than those. The majority of the Movement's followers ...

He posed proudly in front of his tree frog exhibit as his stepmother took a photo, and then by all accounts, Kyron completely disappeared. The search that followed would end up being the largest in Portland history, and the investigation into the circumstances surrounding his disappearance uncovered truly bizarre details of his f...
