I will admit, this has been the first story to truly horrify me. The fact that these two men even thought that this was an "okay" thing to do is horrific. Not to mention the amount of brainwashing this family endured mostly, if not entirely, because of the father. *The sheer fact that these men got away with this and that these women allowed themselves to be horribly murdered and mutilated is down right disgusting* God sometimes I really hate people, and am terrified of them.

There are also some good people out there that just wanna live a humble and peaceful life. 🙂👍♥️🙏😊 But of course there are probably even more evil people then good ones. That reminds me of the Bible verse: We know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one. (1.John 5: 19) The wicked one is no other then Satan the devil. According to Gods word the Bible he rules the whole world at the moment (Luke 4: 5,6). And this is exactly what we see if we turning on the news... Gods word the Bible also says inter alia about this topic: 9 So down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth; he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him. 12 On this account be glad, you heavens and you who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea, because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger, knowing that he has a short period of time.” (Revelation 12: 9) And: Furthermore, God made you alive, though you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you at one time walked according to the system of things of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience. Yes, among them we all at one time conducted ourselves in harmony with the desires of our flesh, carrying out the will of the flesh and of our thoughts, and we were naturally children of wrath just as the rest. (Ephesians 2: 1) I study Gods word the Bible for years. If someone has questions about it please write me. 🙂👍📖♥️🤗

That is the same “faith” required for belief in EVERY religion. Do as you’re told, not as your instincts or observation direct you.

Every religion is a cult, and ask you to suspend disbelief and have faith in something or someone, rather than provide any actual answers or empirical evidence. In what other walk of life would we refer to a book written 2000 years ago as fact, as all Abrahamic religions do? Conviction of any ridiculousness or absurdity, allows for all ridiculousness and absurdity. Not lecturing you…Sorry, agreed with your premise…

The son and surviving daughter both being young enough to still be alive today makes me wonder about every single person that is older than me. Mind blowing.

I'd guess it's highly likely they're living off grid with a small like minded congregation: but using a diff name & cult name . The incest would make it unlikely they'd get a large following but would necessitate somewhere isolated & private.
@tedcorebernays79603 жыл бұрын
@@sarahholland2600 I disagree to some extent. Your hypotheses is perfectly valid. But with the father's ability to create a cult, convince his OWN WIFE to accept incest and inevitable murder to the point that she laid still while being beaten to death I'm guessing they went into politics somewhere. Additionally, they were crafty enough to escape a mental ward and avoid capture. I'm thinking they took advantage of the relative obscurity and are in plain site somewhere. Raising some ungodly new generation. But then, I'm an optimist 😂😂😂! I hope they got fed to vultures. But I don't believe we get that much justice in this world.

I have been working with him on adding some words as well, he has "juice" down quite well! What many people don't realize is that non-verbal doesn't mean there is no communication, it just means that it isn't necessarily in words. I hope you continue to learn to be comfortable speaking with others, & if you get overwhelmed, it's ok to spend some time by yourself. I very introverted, so I get that.

Not because of his advanced old age, just can’t see the son allowing any of them to live that long. 🤔 He’s probably out there in the woods, responsible for 80-90% of the missing 411 cases

"Mr. Ballen", I'm a much older lady than most of your demographic, but I enjoy watching and listening to your vast library of intriguing content. I realize some stories are for fun and that's great for the much younger audience. I saw your thumbnail photo, realized what you accomplished before this career and am utterly blown away. You are gifted in many fields and you and your family are blessed. And you are incredibly handsome. My Lord, you are the ideal package. Thank you!

@alan Frank's dad abused him and his mother by telling everyone he was the prophet of god, everyone who was insane enough to believe that bs was abusing frank by treating him like some giga-royalty, frank and his father were abusing his mother and sister when they would have sex with them. Willing participants of these things or not, it is still abuse.

@alan u think in a religious, sexist fundamentalist religion like that the women had any say? Including the mom? You’d be very wrong. She was an adult, but not as culpable as you may believe. This was the doing of the dad and then son. Brainwashing heinous things in the sole pursuit of dominance and sexual gratification.
