A whole new level of wrongness: "Real Fathers"
Don't ask me how the internet leads me down these rotten paths. I just report back to you what I find. This is wrong.
Funny, but wrong.



Apparently the Christian cult "The Family" used to engage in a practice called Flirty Fishing, prostitute/recruiters for Jesus basically, which in turn produced Jesus Babies that cult patriach Grandpa had to raise.

The how-to manuals for Flirty Fishing are, well, not exactly Chick tracts. There's a "mature content" warning on all the links here, kids. Go ask your parents before clicking any further.

1. Oh no.. Not the flirty fishers again.
Just when it leaves the memory banks, there it is again.

So very wrong...

2. I'd never heard of them before.
I'm reading the whole comic now... and it just gets worse and worse.

3. There was a televised story on them. It was pretty sickening.
I'm no innocent, but this was messed-up.

4. Oh my God! I'm still reading that site and just found out that Davito boy killed himself in 2005
He claimed extensive sex abuse in the cult against children. He broke off from them in 2001, but couldn't lead a normal life. He killed a fellow ex-member two years ago and then went off and shot himself. God, he was just a kid and they apparently put him through hell. Very sad story link.

These people aren't so amusing any more.

5. Cults that involve children and young adults are so wrong.
You'd think that there would be tougher legislation about this sort of thing.

Oh well, what are you gonna do. Scientology bought up the Cult Awareness Network...
