In this episode, we discuss the infamous hippie cult, Children of God, aka Teens for Christ, The Family of Love, The Family, or finally The Family International. We talk about its leader David Brandt Berg, aka King David, Mo, Moses David, Father David, Dad, or Grandpa. We talk about their view of “free love” and how it seemed more like mandatory sex. We discuss the rampant abuse and the practice of “Flirty Fishing” which was having sex with men in order to convert them.
It’s a rough one.
As always we are not experts, we just google this stuff.
