I've watched a couple of documentaries on the #FLDS this week. Having given it some thought, I really don't think it's for me and so will remain atheist. https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81758532
Watch Trust Me: The False Prophet | Netflix Official Site

In this true-crime documentary, a cult expert and filmmaker infiltrate a polygamist sect to expose a self-proclaimed prophet and bring him to justice.

@pete I watched some of these and read a book or two. This one looks very contrived and phony from the trailer. I'm sure there's truth in it, but also a lot of scripting. I'll skip it. Anyway, I already decided to remain atheist.

@bit101 I hadn't actually watched the trailer until now and don't think it does that good a job of setting it up. It's near a documentary about a documentary and so the scripted elements are openly part of it. It's all seriously messed up whatever!

@pete My wife has a morbid fascination with Mormons. There’s a good book on a Mormon splinter sect, Under the Banner of Heaven.

@adamrice I kinda get it (the fascination, not the practice). All kinds of WTF?!
