Book Synopsis The Endtime Family by : William Sims Bainbridge

Download or read book The Endtime Family written by William Sims Bainbridge and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking analysis of the controversial religious group, The Family, or The Children of God, uses interviews, observational techniques, and a comprehensive questionnaire completed by more than a thousand Family members. William Sims Bainbridge explores how Family members infuse spirituality with sexuality, channel messages that they believe emanate from beyond life, and await the final Endtime. He also examines attempts by anti-cultists and the state to "deprogram" members of the group, including children, by forcibly seizing them. The book's blending of theoretical analysis with vivid accounts of this remarkable counterculture poses a fascinating question for social scientists and society—how is it that The Children of God both differ from the general public and, in other ways, are so surprisingly similar to it?
