There's nothing sinister about the C Street Fellowship. The group just believes that "love thy neighbor" trumps the Ten Commandments if you're rich, white, male and Republican.

All you people who find this dangerous should not wait for others to act, you should act yourself. First make sure all your friends are aware of this, make sure your local media is are aware of it, make sure all republicans are aware of it. Just a examples of things you can do yourself.
after a little research, Jaytee is absolutely correct. This is pretty sinister. I would say that the house might be called the amityville house....perhaps it is possessed! I have mail out similar articles to about 500 people. Next is to contact MoveOn.org and other organizations to have them run ads. These guys are nut cases.
What is everyone so shocked about? This B/S has been going on for 5000 years people!!! This "Family" bunch is practicing their faith in exactly the way the Bible intended. The raison d'etre for all Bible based religions is to provide a justification for tribal leaders perpetrating whatever mayhem they need to in order to grab territory and consolidate power. Justification for annihilating tribal enemies (men, women, children, and livestock) is the reason Bible based religions were invented and the only reason they still exist. So The Family and the C-Street creeps are doing exactly what The Bible encourages tribes (i.e. political factions) to do in almost every book it contains. The Bible excuses the most bloodthirsty and promiscuous leaders within it's covers on the basis that they were "chosen of God". In most cases the Bible points out that God himself instructed said leaders to do exactly what they did. How convenient. From the slaughter of the Caananites to King David's rape of Bathsheba - the Bible teaches that the chosen of God can do no wrong. As long as Bible based religions exist, there will always be sickos who will put them to the use for which they were originally intended - the justification of stealing territory and consolidating political power in the hands of a chosen few. If you want this to change, you have to stamp out the religions that teach it, not just rail at the people who follow the teachings.
