The worst part is that in adhering to this extreme legalism, a follower can often inadvertently hurt, slight, or offend a fellow human being, thus displaying the opposite of love, and placing one in violation of the second of the TGCOLs. Look at the way our extended families were effectively killed off because they weren't called to the cult. How many cold and hungry homeless people were told, "He who does not work shall not eat."? How many were shunned by the righteous while they were in jail?<br /><br />This one size fits all legalism of Malm's is no different from some of the more extreme Catholicism, such as self flagellation, or crawling on ones knees up a rocky path to a shrine or temple. I suppose some people could become so extreme that they could justify killing themselves to express their love for God. That is where the Flavor Aid generally makes its entrance on to the snack menu. Believe I'll pass on all of that!<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-53619017347473634102013-08-12T13:22:50.882-07:002013-08-12T13:22:50.882-07:00It would be so funny if a woman wore a fur coat an...It would be so funny if a woman wore a fur coat and no head covering to one of James Malm's 13-hour feast services.
