Default Texas Compound

Crazy church people.

219 children, women taken from sect's ranch - CNN.com

Quote:
Previous visits by CNN revealed the ranch was guarded by armed men equipped with night-vision gear and other high-tech surveillance tools to prevent intruders.
Why do churches need armed guards? I will never understand that. Why doesn't your God protect you?


Anyway...onto the story...compound in Texas, brainwashed members...but no murder this time along (Waco? Koresh? Yeaa....)

Night vision goggles?? Eek. I feel bad for the children. They shouldn't be so sheltered. Hopefully they grow up with a well rounded vision of the world.

Why is it that the leaders of cult are rarely secluded with their groups?? If you were going to join an extreme group wouldn't you be concerned when the leader gives everyone else a task (say like drinking koolaid, living in a tiny underground facility) he say he has something else to do, given to him by whatever god the group follows?

That was a really long sentence...
