What is missing in this brief is information on the "bride of christ" who many believe are the true leader of this congregation and her role in all of this. Well, the pastor has submitted an appeal, but for now this story seems to have come to an end (for now at least).
Fascinating. Well, bring us up to speed! V's wife.
OKay but what person would be believe that God was sending them text messages on their cell phone? I mean that alone makes this just such a hoot...It doesn't really require any of the additional nuttiness of an offbeat cult...just the messages from God is enough for me...And this "pastor" is having an affair with the nanny AND the neighbor's wife...sounds like a man of a different religion to me.
The only way that happens is if the guy is a Laestidian, and most of them are in Finnland or the United States.
(This is the famous Apostolic Charismatic Church of the First Born I've mentioned several times befoe).
His other behavior suggests he has been quite a successful shaman anyway.
Other than the consequental death and carnage, looks like the old Saami religion continues to ride high in Sweden "North of Stockholm" ~ make that "way North"!
Lutherans don't have priests. They have pastors.
Sounds like Catholic bashing by the back door...
In any case, for a short while in the early 1800s parts of this group were affiliated with the Mormons in the US before they moved to Illinois and then Utah.
It's just fascinating as can be to find a practitioner at work in modern Sweden (ROTFLMAO).
sounds like democrats to me
Sheesh.
The interesting information that is missing (and which may have been reported in Sweden while I've been abroad) is whether the "erased messages" actually were recovered or whether the pastor was convicted only on the testimony of the killer herself.
