    I was watching the twist of faith as well and could not believe the idiotic reasoning behind the death Samuel . I do believe in a resurection but nothing can justify the logic used in his death . That poor kid could have been adopted . I almost felt sorry for the mother but feel she should face the same sort of circumstances the child had to suffer .

    Then I changed the channel and there was charles manson . That was a pretty freaky show as well . The guy that played manson was very convincing . It is a shame that califonia repealed the death penalty .

    Husband was found guilty of 1st degree murder, will spend the rest of his life in jail.

    Wife, due to being under the influence of a cult and battered woman's syndrone, was found guilty of assault and battery. Time served already, no jail time. She went into a 6 month rehabilitation program for excult people. She looked like a different person. Smiling.

    Very interesting program, I sat next to a JW while watching it and she said "how could anyone listen to one man who thought God talked to them". Hubby tried to reason "what is the difference between one man or 8?". Poor thing didn't get the point.

    someone mentioned that there were many people responsible for he baby's death, not just the parents. Others could have intervened but didn't,

    interesting..... also sounds familiar

    I watched the first half, but Simpsons came on and i know where my priorties are...

    Glad to hear that the husband was convicted! That whole cult (like lots of other cults) make me sick.

    Poor little Samuel. Damn, Stone Phillips did a hell of a job on that. 51 days of no solid food and I can't understand wht Roland was not implicated in the matter. Roland is another Fred Franz class.

    Fred Franz AKA Chicken Little

    So many close parallels between this cult and the JW's. Very disturbing!

    Was very glad to hear that ALL of the children in the cult were removed and placed in foster care.

    I would like to suggest we make baby SAMUEL our cult abuse poster child .

    He is part of the reason I still believe in a just creator that will make things right as he promised .
