  Never really liked this guy. But after watching this I think I actually feel sorry for him. I thought the Jw's were bad. They banned this guy from their state!!!

  His church could have really taken this opportunity to make what happened to him a positive thing. What a bunch of hypocrites I think it was because of him being gay, which he STILL won't really come out and say it.

  Does anyone here happen to belong to this cult, I mean church? What was it like when this was going on?

  Enjoy.

  Listen to part 2, minute 13.58.

  Man if that that doesn't remind you of what it's like being a JW, I don't know what will.

  This cult, church is way worse on the shunning issue.

  I saw this on tv. I kind of felt bad for him and his family. He's a huckster, though.

  Yeah minimus, I agree.

  "The secular people hate him cause he preaches against homosexuality. The Christians hate him cause he is one. It just shows how much religion can influence someone's way of thinking.

  I actually feel a bit sorry for him. He and his family are just more victims of scripture. But he still doesn't get it."

  Think About It

  Seems like a nice enough guy, but he was the ultimate religious hypocrite. Hate that his wife & kids have to move around and live like that. He should have considered more the consequences of his desires & actions.

  I saw this on TV too. I did feel bad for him too, but did notice that like M said, he tended to go toward jobs that I would call swarmy.

  Still, what they did to him was uncalled for.

  Lion Cask I agree that you reap what you sow. And I also agree with the Dawkins documentary. But that's not what I was reffering to when I posted this.

  I was referring to the Hypocrisy and the extream shunning that his church showed. I also find it fascinating his own denial on his homosexuality.

  I can't see what the videos are here at work but I remember when this was in the news and I did see part of the HBO documentary of the same name if I remember correctly. Mabye that's what these videos are?

  Maybe I'm a heartless bastard, but I don't feel sorry for him. He's a charlatan and a fraud. And his fraud church was embarrassed by him and kicked him out. Now he's working on starting a new church. Looking for more sheep to shear...
