Then I decided to. Okay, so in the past year and a half, I was attending this place which I called "church." So, this year before and a little after Evan was born, I started to ask a lot of questions about the organization of the organization. Trying to figure out the logistics of the politics of the "church", trying to make sense of the actions and the words spoken.
In the next weeks, I will share with you how I was part of a cult. I am going to relate it to articles and compare it with my experience. Yes I said cult! I didn't know that the Word of God would ever be used to manipulate the minds of people who are truly searching for the Lord.
First and foremost, don't feel sorry. I am dealing with this the best way I can and I want to share this so that NO ONE I know will go through this.

@SeeSouLsWorLd - Take care of yourself. You're not ass young as you were when you had the first two. UNLESS, the baby is a girl and is making it hard for you!!!!
Maria, I would be extremely interested in hearing your story. I know 2 guys from our church who have disappeared and joined what I believe is a cult. They did it for religious purposes too. Share your story!!
Hey yay!! Looks like we're going to Linda's right ;)!!! Kami and Tsaaj will be SOOO excited!!! You forgot Malena's shoes and juicie cup. I'll drop them off at your house. Has Evan tried out the jumper yet??
Thank you SOO much for working on my skirts for me, they look awesome!!!

@this_honey - No prob. Oh I totally forgot about the shoes and cup. Yes and Evan tried it out. He likes it. He thinks its funny. Plus last week I brought him to the park and put him on the swing and he liked that too. :D Thanks. :D
