Exposing the underbelly of Armstrongism in all of its wacky glory! Nothing you read here is made up. What you read here is the up to date face of Herbert W Armstrong's legacy. It's the gritty and dirty behind the scenes look at Armstrongism as you have never seen it before!
With all the new crazy self-appointed Chief Overseers, Apostles, Prophets, Pharisees, legalists, and outright liars leading various Churches of God today, it is important to hold these agents of deception accountable.
Herbert Armstrong's Tangled Web of Corrupt Leaders
If the video doesn't work, check it out on Youtube at the 9:03 mark as the Prophetess makes an appearance for opening prayer.
We are pleased to introduce to you the Prophetess of the Church of God. Through her, God speaks.
She is not the High Prophetess and Second Witless Witness though, that is her mother, the looney Laura Weinland. Can the Church of God have a family that is crazier people than this family?
They are all certified nuthouse candidates.
Please give money at the offering today as Audra needs a new BMW and a case of erasers so she can correct all of those "mistakes" in the financial books that got Big Daddy into trouble previously.
It is fascinating that a young person sees through Armstrongism when the adults refuse to.
I wish it were true that "no one remembers", but sadly there are still damaging splinter cults of the mother church that are far more dangerous and potentially deadly than
the Worldwide Church of God could have ever imagined.
I also felt that placing that which was off limits and would cause one's eternal death for taking from them was a taunt to do so and cheating. You know, "There's a dish of candy on the coffee table kids but don't let me ever find you taking any."
Why not put them away and out of sight so as not to risk the inevitable?
that said...
How often I sat wishing I was somewhere else than listening to HWA start his message with "There were two trees in the garden..." Ugh not again! I suspected he repeated it so often, not really because "you people don't get it" but because he was aging and sticking to familiar themes was easier. HWA was no theologian as were few if any of in the ministry. Their knowing came from merely reading the Bible and commenting on what they thought it meant or needed it to mean for the Church. I suppose I did that too in the naivete of my youth and feeling of specialness until I grew up and decided that the knowledge of Good and Evil, while originally in the story were God Fruit Trees and not for human consumption, would really be a good thing for humans to have.
So a little something to consider Carl Sagan who knew a bit more than Herbert W Armstrong , Garner Ted, Dave Pack, Bob Thiel, Gerald Flurry, Gerald Weston and just about every Church of God congregant on the problem of the knowledge of good and evil being withheld from us by religious need to believe rather than to experience the discomfort of actually knowing.

"We have not been given the lead in the cosmic drama"
Los Angeles had a pretty good earthquake this evening. It will only be a matter of time for our COG prophetic fools start spouting off that it is God's punishment or some other asinine reason.
Bwana Bob Thiel will claim he predicted it. Sex Therapist James Malm will claim it is because people are not zealous. Gerald Flurry will claim it is punishment on CA because of the doctrinal changes and the selling of the Pasadena property. Dave Pack, well, he will be Dave Pack and give 155 reasons why an earthquake hit California because 4 of the top COG leaders have not died yet.
These porphecy fools actually want to see death and destruction in order to legitimize themselves in other people eyes.
COG prophets are never ones to let a good opportunity to pass them by.
