A parable for all religions.

Chad Daybell was sentenced to death for murdering some of his family members. Some people attribute his crazy, murderous behavior to his Mormon faith because the LDS church is well known for producing offshoots and splinter groups that get very weird and dangerous. But other religions, maybe all religions, generate cult groups, charismatic leaders, etc.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
