How can they just abduct people's children?

Rude, aren’t they? And grumpy!

Why do they preach to passers-by? Do they think anyone would like to join?

Repent your own sins, not mine you delusional nutters. There’s no one up there to hear your rantings.

As it says in the real Bible - ‘Vote CONSERVATIVE’ Muss3:16

These wrong-uns are hiding in plain sight - that level of wickedness demands it.

I really liked the MP lady, James’ cousin. I could have listened to her for longer.

Sounds like "The Rruman Show"

These sects are dominated by grandiose & malignant narcissists, their followers are fliing monkeys & enablers, their definition of "exclusive" is warped, Broadmoor is "exclusive" but folks ain't queueing up to join there. The Ritz is "exclusive" by affordability. Polo is an "exclusive" sport. Yacht owners are an exclusive class, but a dowdy old chapel with no windows holding hostages ain't exclusive it's a religious trap house. Cult survivor here still recovering 40 years after my escape. The trauma bond is real folks, get support from wherever you can

I was adopted into a similar cult, the evangelical pentecostalists, almost identical behaviour, rules & attitudes, same dowdy dress sense, no TV, newspapers, no friends outside the sect, I left at 16 & they locked me out of the house on sundays . Very sadistic narcissistic holier than thou prudes, proud as peacocks, no sense of humour or laughter, plenty of pain & tears, 40 yrs on I still have CPTSD & you never forget this experience it haunts you for life , thankfully these narcissistic sects & cults have largely gone out of fashion or been named & shamed now

I find it very interesting that some very well known and very large Christian charities are not very charitable to their own people. The practice of making their own people dependant on a stipend income, providing accommodation, schooling, work etc and then controlling them with the threat of shame and demotion or expulsion where they and their family lose everything for an infringement is very much in practice. Often with no available recourse through normal channels like workers compensation etc. Perhaps not as in your face as the brethren but it happens more than you think.

Most people are in a cult and hollywood and main stream media are there leaders

Many deluded idiots speaking on this waste of space documentary

... WEIRDER & WEIRDERERER But Jolly Whimsical ✌️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🥃 2:37

I am so saddened and angered at the lives that have been fucked up by this evil, deranged cult. How dare they do this. Religion poisons everything .

Religion poisons everything.

Why would anyone mind being shut off from such people? Good riddance, surely?

As long as the Exclusive Brethren are perceived as wicked, they will continue to attract followers.

how do you avoid the job center and employment and haveing to use a computer

would not mind a visit to this place

This 1976 BBC documentary called “Doctrine That Divides” requires CLARIFICATION to ensure precise information and objective truth. This video does not speak of the Historical “Exclusive Brethren” (EB), but a subset (separate division) of the EB movement called “The Raven-Taylor Exclusive Brethren” division - considered a cult by the EB. Consequently, associating John Nelson Darby with James Taylor (Sr. or Jr.) is an injustice. Btw, James Taylor Jr was a flagrant adulterer. The current Head of this Cult is an Australian called Bruce Hales. This Raven-Taylor (RT) cult had nothing to do with the EB. In 2012, the cult was incorporated under the name “Plymouth Brethren (Exclusive Brethren) Christian Church Limited” (commonly known as "The Exclusive or Plymouth Brethren Christian Church" and is entirely separate from the Historical Exclusive Brethren still in existence today. In fact, EB does not use the name “Church.” The EB and Open Brethren (OB) (another subset from EB) use the names "Gospel Chapel" "Gospel Hall" "Bible Chapel" and "Christian Assembly" but never “Church.” So today, to be clear, this documentary talks about the sect called “Plymouth Brethren Christian Church” (50,000 members) AND NOT the EB and OB. The first is a cult that divides families; the latter are evangelical conservative Christians (EB and OB) and are considered true Christians that do not divide families. For more info, please see this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoXRaWCkqL6lg6s, Also, for updated information on the cult (The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church), you may want to view this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2HIf5mHf9umqMk

The sect referred to is the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church, an off-shoot from the main Exclusive Brethren of which there are many sub-divisions, all evangelical in outlook.

Lance this is SO brilliant which are your parents? x

Thank you Rebecca for uploading this documentary. My late husband was a former member of the Exclusive Brethren and at the time of this documentary was trying to "get his life right" to go back into fellowship with his children following his separation from his wife. Very fortunately for him, the "priests" never did come to see him, he got back with wife and the family moved. Many years later, following his divorce and our marriage, Dave and I had the pleasure of meeting your father, along with other former brethren, and I feel that this helped Dave so much. We were also amongst the congregation at your father's funeral. The documentary has helped me to put some things that I have heard, into perspective. Before I met my late husband, I lived near the Brethren in Rawdon, Leeds. I was unaware of them at the time but I remember the controversy when Garth Christy's son lost his leg in an accident when they were "not" building a meeting house on the edge of Yeadon/Rawdon. Certainly the Exclusive Brethren or Plymouth Brethren Christian Church as they are now styled, do not deserve charitable status as even after all these years, outsiders are not welcome at their meeting houses despite numerous investigations by the Charities Commission.

just things i take for granted

I started out with an independent group (an independent table). Two years later, I joined the exclusive brethren, a closed group. There was hardship, to be sure, and a lot of what I see in this film was not practiced among these exclusives. About eight years later I moved away and left the group and I slowly drifted towards the open brethren. Now, today, I live in Taiwan with my Taiwanese wife, and I am a member of a bilingual church. I am relatively happy, but I don't break bread with them; I'm not sure why, I just don't.

1 Corinthians 5 [9] I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people [10] not at all meaning the people of this world, who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. [11] But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother, but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.

Any group that will not let you have a Dog is evil.

I AM SO TIRED OF ALL RELGION(they are all cults) they all peddle lies, while trying to controll you and steal your money

What's amazing is that many evangelical Christians in America follow the invented doctrinal system of Dispensationalism by the founder of this group John Nelson Darby. Dispensationalism is heresy!

i cant even handle been in lockdown

What happen to you if had regular lie in on Saturday morning

Watching this in 2021. Where are they now?

These their manager Curt Turner has been calling the mother of all for years. He got mother earth to fight back with the Las Palmas volcano. His team was creating the mother of all sacrifices as indicated below. The San Andreas will go.

Worked with this guy these called Pig Shit Obrien. HE and his friend Shane Seeders of Martinsburg Computing Center are responsible for Sandy Hook, Pulse Night Club and other mind control attacks. They decided to play Adam and Eve games so they created Adam Lanza of Sandy Hook. My voice teacher was a new Mario Lanza. Seeders is in Church of the Brethren.

Has BBC produced a documentary on Islam in Australia?

It's a dangerous cult.

For those interested in a more recent report on the Exclusive Brethren, see this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4q2qWSvpdiSo7s Sadly, much the same is going on.

Criminal. Awful. So sorry for these folk. Several cults operate this way and are tax exempt, which is criminal: the Amish, Scientologists, and many more.

Why does Glynis look 45? The fake eyelashes don't help.

Me gustaría conocer alguna persona que hubiera sido hermano de Plymouth. Gracias!

So interesting to see this and even the music of this series took me back in a way only music can to my teenage years. We have the same issues today in 2021 about groups who do not break the law but bind people's minds. If they do no good, not benefit then we can deny them charitable status (like we deny Scientology in the UK although not in the USA). If they break the law in whatever ways you can prosecute a cult or sect. However if they do none of those things then there is not a lot that can be done other than enforce child contact rights in the courts - even that is hard eg in UK Jewish ultra orthodox religious families when someone leaves - a child can be torn mentally in two by two worlds.

An update of how these particular ones are doing in 2021 would be interesting. I know the group seem to be quite big in Australia now too. They were never an easy group - I remember my mother telling me about them in the 1960s or 70s. Any group which requires people to be apart is going to have issues over shunning whether it be the Amish or US FLDS or Scientology - you are with us or against us they think. They are all wrong of course... there is no God and things like scientology are totally wrong too.

I worked for an EB business for many years. On an individual level, each of them is a decent, humane person, but when they flip into brethren mode, they become automatons, bereft of logic and able only to parrot certain sentences they’ve been programmed by their cult leaders to spew out. It’s so pathetic and sad. Their leaders should be in prison for mass abuse.

Is this cult still in existence in 2021? My former boss belonged to what she called a Plymouth Brethren Chapel in the USA, but she wasn’t always proselytizing, acting or dressing weird, living in a compound...She lived in a large NYC upscale co-op, worked in a secular job as an administrative assistant, was married to non-religious Jewish man. They had two children who were normal, attended a private liberal academy, etc. Perhaps there was no relation to these Brethren.

As a BT engineer, I was one of the few “Non Brethren” to enter the hall building. They had a payphone. It was a square building with a central amphitheatre going down to a central circular carpeted plinth with a high stool/chair and microphone stand. Around the outside of amphitheatre was a corridor with doors or toilets in each corner and all around the four walls were several rows of coat hooks. It’s now a small estate of housing/flats.

Goddamned bloody control freaks

Better grab your rosary beads and get your penance done

Oh dear youve missed church,ohhhh shock horror,the wrath of god is coming down on your head
