Dignity: A Journal of Human Rights

I recently started a new blog entitled Dignity: A Journal of Human Rights. It will contain information on human abuse and exploitation that is taking place in the world today, particularly crimes against children. I have just posted an article on the Children of God murder, committed earlier this month by Ricky Rodriguez, son of David "Moses" Berg. In the late 1960s, Berg established an international Christian church called The Children of God (now The Family International, www.thefamily.org). It started out conservative, but soon Berg had lovely young female followers becoming escorts (ostensibly to "catch fish", or bring converts into the church). He gradually created a polyamorous credo much like the "Promiscuity is a citizen's duty" in Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Ultimately, he even urged parents and caregivers to sexually fondle young children. This included the molestation of his own infant stepson, Ricky "Davidito" Rodriguez, by female nannies. Rodriguez was raised by The Children of God, but his experiences dropped him into the depths of hell. Please read "Preacher, Papa, Pimp" and post your comments for others to read. For more information on child sexual abuse in The Children of God, go to www.movingon.org. This is a website put up by former members and victims of the cult, some of whom are attempting to press charges against their abusers. You can find background information on The Children of God at www.religioustolerance.org.
