Being part of the Worldwide Church of God or one of it's 700 splinter cults we were/are surrounded by every imaginable conspiracy theory there was. Pasadena was filled with those who saw the Illuminati behind everything, the new world order, new money systems, Zionist Jews, Bilderbergers, and on and on the list can go. When you free your mind from this silliness you see a world filled with wonder about you. However, those still entrenched in Armstrongite thought still think about these things.
On one of the ultra far right HWA loving Yahoo sites these are the topics of discussion. I must add that in hardly any of the 26,000 some entries do you find people discussing Jesus and his radical message.
This is just a sampling of the topics these people feel are important to their spiritual lives:
Germany's new generation of female political leaders
Germany is beginning to proclaim herself as a leader in Europe
Intermarriage in the US is destroying our bloodline
UFO flies over Temple Mount
First Gad, now Dan, build tunnel to Assyria - for future captives?
Google finds Atlantis!
A mysterious, pale green figure seen in televised news coverage of the Egyptian riots has prompted some viewers to ask, "Could this be the Fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse?"
Robot's are attacking us.
For what it's worth, my thoughts are that the Laodicean era started when Mr.
Armstrong died. Both Philadelphia and Laodicea continue today. Those of us in
Philadelphia are striving to"...hold that fast which thou hast..." Rev. 3:11.
The Laodicean attitude is the predominate one now.
1911 Encyclopedia Britannica is only legit encyclopedia
Hidden underground cities for 2012 survivors
Hidden underground military bases
The Georgia guide stones
Sociologists claim 225 of Russians are Israelites
There will be another Hitler someday
Super moon on March 19 will cause huge earthquakes and other extreme weather
Massive food riots this springUpcoming civil war in the USA that will cause the country to break apart.

Harmstrong's petri dish produces some incredibly rotten fruits.
700 clubs of WCG splinter cults got spawned, crammed full of Bible b--- s--- artists. Groups wanting to gullibly accept any nutty proposition.
Armstrong was a Bible based b---s--- artist.
Armstrong's b--- s--- goes in one end; it shouldn't surprise us what Bible b--- s---- artists du jour come out the other end.
My friend.
's [apostrophe s] is used in a possessive sense, as when you said >Germany's< or in contractions like >It's<.
It is not used for plurals, such as >UFO's< and >Robot's<.
If you're going to unashamedly bash HWA and the COGs, at least proof and spell check the document before publishing it.
The many typos, syntax, and grammatical errors on this website dilute the impact of your hate speech for your more educated lurkers.
Those topics are cut and pasted from the conspiracy/religious nuts. Go over to their Yahoo board and be sanctimonious with them.
Not radical enough. How about:
Sabbath keeping Scientologists decry use of British Israelism in Armstrongist Churches!
Elvis spotted at the UCG Home Office!
Demons appearing on television reveal fall of Gerald Flurry!
Iceland declared secret location of Hitler by GXCoG!
UFOs visit Queen of England delivering proof she is descended from King David!
Massive food fight at LCG Spring Holydays!
Google found on Bing by CoGG pastor!
Robots demand Kosher Oil for joints!
Supercomputer virtual despot took over world when Joseph Tkach Senior died!
Illuminati cause UCG crisis!
New World Order seals deal with ICoG to take over world!
Sabbath Keeping Mormons declared to be the third horseman of the Apocalypse!
South American churches riot over sanctions against Sabbath keeping members having a day care open on Friday night after sunset!
....
This is all supposed to be a satire.
I apologize if any of these headlines actually turned out to be true!

Armstrongists don't seem to understand what fools they look like to the outside world: No one is going to consider them credible with their infighting, silly ideas, failed predictions, blatant heresy, abuse and generally bad behavior.
If the Armstrongists want credibility, they need to set boundaries, abandon their crazy ideas, rethink their positions, stop the narcissism, quit the greed, take responsibility, stop setting a terrible example, quit the abuse and generally get their act together. They seem to think that their behavior is isolated and no one that matters can see their evil doing.
Wrong.
The couple being stalked in the UCG got a restraining order from Superior Court. That Boy in the Box thing hit the newspapers. The Orthodox Jews aren't happy about British Israelism. The Church of God Seventh Day isn't going to consider keeping the Feasts because of the entirely accurate reports of drunkeness and alcoholic behavior at the Feast of Tabernacles. The Seventh Day Church of God calls Armstrongism idolatry. Failed prophecies make the venue look really ridiculous to the general populace. The "church wars" are nothing but entertainment for stable Christian Churches -- and as evidence of the lack of viability the entire Armstrongist community has. The values and behaviors are laughable and panned at every turn. Psychiatrists who have learned of their behavior evaluate the Armstrongists of having multiple mental disorders.
Congratulations on bringing darkness (and dorkness) to the (spiritual) Gentiles. Do you claim to be of God? It sure doesn't look like it to an objective eye.
Congratulations for setting a terrible example to the whole world.
The ACoGs are much like an obstreperous drunken couple arguing at a restaurant, seeming to believe that no one around them sees or hears them because they are so focused on each other in their anger. They should be aware that if they continue and the Manager returns, they may be ejected after paying for the damages they caused.
