Didn't attend or graduate? No problem! All one need to have done was to act in the valence of a typical grad.<br /><br />This arrogant personna certainly didn't emphasize or even remotely involve the servant mentality taught by Jesus! Its most prominent attribute was the ability to repeat speculation and theory as fact, supported only by<br />HWA's alleged apostleship. As we can see today, this same methodology has been widely infectuous, even sometimes unknowingly used in reverse by prominent ones who have left the group. <br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-59237997901883211332012-08-11T12:24:03.553-07:002012-08-11T12:24:03.553-07:00Hawkins did not attend AC.

It's no wonder Herbert Armstrong called it "Satan's College", although we all should have figured out who should have been in charge, given that Herbert Armstrong was the Chancellor. And of course, AC churned out lying false prophet sychophants who carried the message of heresy to the outerlands and received fairly good wages for it (and in spite of what many might say or think, many of us worked a lot harder at our jobs for a lot less money).<br /><br />But for those who did not go to Ambassador College and became cult leaders in their own right, do seem to have gone farther off the reservation than even the useless products of AC.<br /><br />And that is why I wonder of this Hawkins had any indoctrination or if he is just a weird kook on his own.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-88636696039319540452012-08-11T02:08:46.367-07:002012-08-11T02:08:46.367-07:00How do the men who practice "secret polygamy&...How do the men who practice "secret polygamy" get all those women?<br /><br />Clearly, polygamy is totally cool with Biblegod, in most cases.<br /><br />Do fervent believers get the Holy Spirit to give them pickup lines like, "Hey Baby, I am without sin. The enemy doesn't want you to check out my fruits, but I sense that you want to obey God and deny the enemy his wishes." <br /><br />Or, "God is so amazingly complex, and human understanding operates on multiple levels like the one below my belly button, so Jesus wants you to suck my dick, baby!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-63724195830673976142012-08-10T14:59:53.594-07:002012-08-10T14:59:53.594-07:00"I was there at the beginning when The House ...<i>"I was there at the beginning when The House of Yahweh was actually a wonderful place to be...</i><br /><br />Ugh.

Several years back some people on one of the Armstrong related forums documented that in some states such as Texas and Montana, numerous ACOGgers are even involved in the militia groups. Basically, that appears not to be that much of a stretch. All you need do is add firearms to Armstrongism, ramp up the survivalism aspects of the end times, and carry British Israelism to its logical racist conclusions, and you've got a fairly effective fit.<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.com
