Dear Some One I knew your dad's family--I was young but I remember when they got married. Didn't know much after they moved to Shiloh. I am saddened for this--it is just awful. I had no idea this shit was going on. All those years in the darkness--hiding. I didn't go to Shiloh -- I was terrified of it--hated the violent intercession and people came back really weird. But this?

Welcome Lone Wolf. Your story is yet another in the long line of broken families. I am sorry for the loss you incurred and there is no reason for it that makes any sense except this is high level, long-term, deep-seated mind control--to the hilt. I hope that KBoy is correct--but I am very concerned that this is becoming a dangerous situation for those who have recently left or are trying--cuttin

I just want to say that I love you all. This forum saved my life in those early days--people reached out to me in my despair. I was able to vent without being judged--it is kind of fun to poke at the leadership--especially G Man. So, though the work is not done--as Denise points out--closing the doors is really the only way to end the nightmare for good. So carry on my friends and thank you f

It used to be that googling Hargrave or LW or any of it--that the cult education website came up in the first few links. And now go look.

Oh and someone should contact People Magazine about their cults documentary. I bet they would be interested.

I am kind of sad that ApostleDog is missing this. I never knew what happened to him. He had said he was going in for surgery--that was after his wife died. He didn't know if he would make it. But I am sad he was on here helping people for so long and missed the finale.

ON the FB thread, it is said that this is Dawn--Hargrave's daughter. Anyone know? It seems to me that the lawsuits for victims of what we have heard is a shoe-in.

Yep I agree 100 percent. Sadly the people on the inside think that Lisa is representing them when she is just covering Gary's ass because that is what she is paid to do.
