There was something else that I had wanted to touch on in the first blog, but it had gotten way too long. So I'll just touch base on it quickly in here before moving off the topic.
Epically Epic Pictures from Books that David gave to Cult Children:
This will just give you some idea of how much of a whack job this asshole is. That's as if the other blog didn't convince you already.

"David is like a.."
And if that wasn't bad enough for you.. we still have the whole "Devil hates Sex" angle.
David had a very set idea of what he liked and enjoyed sexually. Any other form of paraphilia that he did not like or enjoy was forbidden. He also used his paraphilias and deviancy's as justification for certain practices he instilled.
One of the largest sexual liberties that was forcefully banned and looked down upon was homosexuality.
David himself preferred and showed a heavy desire to see his sexual partners engaging with others, often opting for voyeurism.
Other paraphilias within this cult were;
- Ephebophilia [[interest in adolescents. Generally in "sexual ethics" this referred to girls from the ages of 14-16 and boys aged 14-19.]]
- Pedophilia [[a quote pulled from David's writing in "The Devil Hates Sex -- But God Loves It!"; -- "There's nothing in the world at all wrong with sex as long as it's practiced in love, whatever it is or whoever it's with, no matter who or what age or what relative or what manner!"
- Incest
- Exhibitionism
- Voyeurism
- Frotteurism [[refers to a paraphilic interest in rubbing, usually one's pelvis or erect penis, against a non-consenting person for sexual gratification.]]
Just looking up the Frottering definition and the Ephebopillia definition completely blew my mind. Here is a cult of people that have or are actually practicing these acts and calling themselves Godly or God-like.
God never not once encouraged the act of fornicating with a child or adolescent.
Now, we all on this forum are considered deviants because we have a [[constantly debated, but fuck it]] phillia with the tickling fetish. However, I don't believe that puts us any where near the level of Sin that the entire above list does.
Sure, there are many out there who have abused or tarnished our fetish, but we don't make a practice out of it. We also don't use it to attempt to convert people into following a set line of Religion.
I just can't seem to wrap my head around the fact that so many viewed this [[and still do]] as a completely accepted practice. Just because you have some asshole parading around claiming he's "Just like" God, doesn't mean you take him at his word.
Now I'm sure some folks are going to say that, "so what? You follow the practice of a 'person' that we can't even see. What's the difference?" -- And for the most part, I believe there isn't, EXCEPT the God *I* follow does not and has not ever encouraged anyone of that kind of behavior, nor has He forced anyone in any way to follow His rule.
With David, it was put up or get put in a camp.
And I'm sure the next question most likely will be, "Okay, David puts them in a camp. But YOUR God sends non-believers to Hell."
My answer to that is quite simple. If you clearly do not believe in My God or Anyone elses, then you have nothing to worry about when you die. For those that like to argue further then that, I become amused because it's not only looking like a justification battle, but it almost seems as if the person doing the arguing *does* want to believe, but they are still too skeptical to just let it happen. To all of those people, I say; just go with the flow. You'll see what it is you need when you stop putting blocks in front of it.
I don't talk much about my religion or my beliefs because I don't want to come out sounding too pushy. I don't seek to convert anyone, although there are plenty of friends that I have that I would really like to Save. However, that's not my business or place.
I dislike people who try to push others into believing. To me that isn't very Christian. Sure, you are God's "soldier" or God's "messenger" or whatever it is you people are calling yourselves now a days, but when you go out and cram His word down others' throats then you become no different then this David person I'm talking about. You taint His Word when you force it and your attempts begin to make the whole idea of Christianity seem cult-ish and that is the last thing you would want to do, isn't it?
Blah. Okay. Final part!

Bad-Ass Excerpts from the book, "The Devil Hates Sex -- But God Loves it!"
Yessir. Get ready for it folks.. the creme de la creme of this whole entire way too long blog duo. Our man of the hour, David Berg [[oh, 'scuse me.. "FATHER DAVID"]] brings the pain!:
Yessir. Get ready for it folks.. the creme de la creme of this whole entire way too long blog duo. Our man of the hour, David Berg [[oh, 'scuse me.. "FATHER DAVID"]] brings the pain!:
1.) "The Devil hates and fights sex! Just the opposite of what the Church teaches! All his pornography and dirty pictures is to downgrade and belittle sex and literally make it filthy! He belittles and downgrades and contaminates sex and does everything he can against sex because it's just about the most beautiful creation of God! The Devil is probably the World's greatest enemy of sex and for the system churches to have taught that sex was a temptation of Eve in the Garden of Eden is one hell of a Goddamned doctrine of the devils!"
2.) "Just think, sex is probably the most spiritual physical activity there is of everything about the body or the physical that comes the closest to something spiritual. An orgasm is really not just physical but it literally flips you out in the Spirit! It's a spiritual experience, just like a gateway to the Spirit World! With me, orgasms are really sometimes terrific spiritual explosions!"
3.) "I was thinking about it when I saw Philippe la Plume's "Revolutionary Sex" komic about teaching children about sex and how beautiful it is and how true and how Godly and how Biblical and so on, and yet how dangerous for us to even put out such a truth! I mean if you want to infuriate the system, just talk about teaching sex to children, or allowing children any sexual activities or to explore sex or anything. Whew! They've passed so many laws against sex it's almost unbelievable!"
4.) "If people had had more children, why the world would probably have reached a population state where the lord could have ended it maybe a thousand years ago & He could have come then instead of having to wait 2000 years! But they've been slowing down the sexual process & trying to keep from having children enough to populate the World sufficiently to reach the stage where the Lord wanted it to. This makes me mad! I'm angry! I'm not so mad at the Devil because he knows what he's doing, but at the Goddamned stupid idiots who believe him, they're the ones!"
5.) "I don't know what the hell age has got to do with it when God made'm able to enjoy it practically from the time they're born! But though God didn't count them as under age to have sexual feelings & sexual responses & sexual nerves & sexual orgasms from the time they're born, the system prohibits them from having them until they're 18 to 21 years of age!"
6.) "Sex is taboo! Sex is illegal!—Except within a very very few restricted carefully controlled areas. The Devil is so God-damn afraid of it, & the System is so afraid that people would get out of control & find freedom if they didn't keep it under control! It's ridiculous, just ridiculous!"
7.) "If it's not of faith & it's not in love, it's sin!—Even if it's right! Even if it's not wrong! Even if legally, technically, according to God's Law of Love it's really not wrong & could even be right, it's wrong for you if you haven't got the faith for it & if you haven't got the love for it! My Lord, how totally messed up the world is! So totally messed up that anybody who wants to fight for openness about sex in any way, legally or in literature, art or anything, has to be very very careful they don't violate the system's very strict rules about sex!"
8.) "The thing that makes me mad is that man has allowed the devil to deceive him like that and has been such a stupid idiot as to believe the Devil's lies that sex is evil and sex is the worst sin of all and must be prohibited. The Devil would certainly like to prohibit it completely if he could, and he has restricted it so that things have not moved as fast as they should have."
9.) "Look how the Devil attacked the very foundation of creation from the very beginning-sex! And tried to destroy sexual activity between men and women so they couldn't have any children. He was all for destroying the children from the beginning, and if he couldn't stop them from having babies, they took them and threw them in the fire to the god Moloch as soon as they had'm!"
10.) "It makes me so mad how many poor guys have been sweating it out for years in prison for obeying god's natural laws, just because they violated some God-damned system law based on the doctrine of the Devil that sex in some way is evil! Boy, how the Devil hates sex and how he has taught the world to believe it's evil! The whole idea was to teach the world that in order to enjoy sex you had to love him and worship him and disobey God. He taught a false doctrine so they would believe it was a sin and believe it was evil, therefore to them it was a sin, he made it a sin."

Okay, I'm done. I promise my next blog won't be so boring. I just found this particular cult interesting and insanely amusing, so I thought I'd share. 🙂
