Cults lead to abductsions.

I was watching Dr. Phil, ( I don't watch affine) this one to me was very interesting it had to do with child abductsion. The two abductsion that they discussed have to do with cult's.

One of the abductsions had dealt with Minnesota and a cult called the hutterites. Some people believe this to be just a very spiritual group well others consider it a cult.

I did a search on huttrites and found a few things nothing in direct with Minnesota, as of yet anyway. Here is some history on the hutterite "religion", you can decide if it is a cult or not. http://www.hutterites.org/history.htm.

Anyway Perer Hoover was on the show. Who is he? From what I got he is a pastor at a Minnesota hutterite group. He has had contact with the child abducted Mike Hari, who abducted they two kids after he and his wife got a divorce.

The girls mother is scared for the children and also very scared she will never she her children again. Here is some of what she had to say.

Michelle's husband decided to answer his religious calling and to pursue what he considered a purer way of life. The family moved into a 1969 trailer with no running water, electricity or indoor plumbing, in a small community in the woods. Their only toilet was a five-gallon bucket with a toilet lid. Michael read Bible verses and sang hymns at certain times of the day along with his family. He soon befriended a man who was part of the Worldwide Church of God. "The Worldwide Church of God has some very radical beliefs on the Bible," says Michelle.
Her husband started buying guns and rifles. His friend told the couple that he could help them disappear from society if they needed to. "Michael would threaten to take our daughters and go into the underground and tell me I would never see them again. I didn't want to lose my babies," says Michelle.

Michael came across the Old German Baptist Church on the Internet, and Michelle attended one service with him. "This was not like any church I had ever been in," she says. "I thought, I can't do this anymore. I can't continue this roller coaster, so I came back to the area I grew up in, I got a job, and I got a divorce."


The other case also invalued a cult. This time it was the wife that disappeared and it is believed that her family knows were she is. She left for a cult based out of Japan she say on the internet. She took her kids with her at the time they were ages 7,5,2, two boys and a girl. The kids would not be ages 18,16,13.

If anyone else saw the show I am interested in your thoughts. Also if you know anything about the hutterite origination I would like to know. This seems to be a series of shows I know they will have more about the hutterirte case next Tuesday.
