"The key here is Apex’s story of falsification isn’t new. As Yahoo Finance previously reported, a Florida-based for-profit school did the same, enrolling students en masse with the help of provocative dressed recruiters. And earlier this year, the Department of Education cut off federal financial aid to a set of East Coast career schools — including the Harris School of Business — for fai

Who does Ron Denis think he is? Why does he posture himself as if he's some kind of special advisor to the Three Persons of the Trinity? What is Ron Denis trying to hide, that he does not want his congregation in general to know? When was the last time Ron Denis actually visited one of his congregations? Where is Ron Denis? He has not actually visited one of his "churches&quo

Here's another thing, another detail I had not thought about in a long time, until recently and which will further prove my truthfulness: It was spring of 2004 in Hinesville, and I'd been reading about HOP and NTCC on the cult-ed forum which is now defunct. There was this one man, a man named JOHANSEN, who was formerly a part of NTCC and who was posting about that organization to th

"Roger Lafontant is the archetype of Haitian politics, politics in short. Her figure fascinates for what she projects better and worse. His admirers, many under the old regime, use exaggerated adjectives to color his flamboyant reputation. Its critics fill their mouths with arrogance whenever it is imposed on them the obligation to pronounce the name of this brazen personage who made cry his

No wonder Ron Denis is such an evil man. His dad was an evil man too, who worked for evil people. Ron Denis' father was none other than Roger Lafontant, who was the leader of the Tontons Macoute death squads in Haiti during the rule of the infamous "Papa Doc" Duvalier. In other words, Ron Denis' dad was a Haitian warlord who helped to preside over a reign of terror whi

CORRECTION: (Hell, Ron Denis is so obsessed with who's gay and who's not that it makes me wonder about what's up with HIM, you know? It's OK, Ron. It's 2022. Nobody CARES if you're gay anymore.)

Joseph Fryar's is a very typical position in most cult groups. People outside of the group are viewed either as potential members or potential enemies of the group. They are not usually considered appropriate for friendships-whether close or casual. All cults and abusive organizations view themselves as engaged in some all-important work, whether it is to convert lost souls, spread "

Joseph Fryar: I've been told that you tried to leave House or Prayer before, but that some men from the church found you, deflated the tires on your car so that you could not get away, and then brought you back to Ron Denis. I was also told that you have been with Denis ever since, and that you are the one who does the shopping for him. Further, I have been told that your wife Casonia

Ron: without a doubt you are trying to figure out who I am, what my name is; it's possible that you may have done so already. I know that you and your lieutenants are most likely reading all of this. But I'm not worried about it, Ron, and I'm not scared of you, either. What are you going to do to me that you have not tried to do before? What are you going to do, tell people t

Not to make excuses for my behavior, but I have Asperger's. I was not diagnosed until AFTER I got out of the Army. Sometimes I'm not as self-regulating as I ought to be, and I have a tendency to be blunt. Sometimes I'm rude without meaning to be. I also have an incredible ability to perseverate, to become hyperfocused and obsessive. Thank you for the constructive criti

Here's a detail that will prove my truthfulness: I chose my screen name here (The Whirlwind) because that's the same screen name that Rev. Kekel used when he started posting about NTCC (to the forum which is now defunct) in the summer of 2004. I followed that whole strange saga at the time, and used to post to that same message board. I forget how he got outed, but eventually i

Here's something I remember, from the first time I heard Ron Denis preach. I witnessed this in the spring of 2004, while I was at Ft. Stewart. Rev. Bradeen's wife gets on the electric piano and starts playing a slow, mellow meandering melody that creates a surreal, dreamy atmosphere in the church...people are pacing the floor and praying prone on the ground. Then somebody turns

HOPCC is a group I was peripherally involved with when I was in the Army, back in 2004. I went to their services for a few months, and used to hang around their servicemen's home in Hinesville. The servicemen's home was a welcome respite from barracks life, and I welcomed the fellowship and camaraderie with my fellow soldiers that I found there. But there was something about House o

Try to be more kind yourself. I texted you (at the number you mentioned in your video) and you texted me back and told me that you did not want to talk about it, other than to find a lawyer. You were rude to me. I never texted you again. So stop playing the victim.

The details are different from group to group, of course; some are theistic groups, and some are non-theistic groups. Some are pseudo-therapeutic groups, some are political groups, some are "educational" groups,
