That group permeates into many areas, such as schools and churches, and our very own government. It is a recruiting organization for future members and a secret society in that those on the outside have no idea who they are.
If there is a silver lining in this thunderboomer of a cloud, maybe people will be awakened to the reality of that group instead of thinking, "aw, there would never be a group such as that" Too many of these people have squeaky clean criminal records and can get by any background investigation. Their victims in most cases are too humiliated to be discovered and the crimes are never reported.
If there is a downside to this, it is one that desensitizes the public to hearing about these types of things, which as those pushing for its acceptance want to happen. In the meantime as the public becomes desensitized, they go back to their bread and circuses, while the creeps move into a new level of creepiness. Frankly, my mind can not think of much creepier than what I have heard this week.
So true. Good post.
