JUDGE Roy Moore's conduct throughout his ENTIRE LIFE
IS PROOF ENOUGH FOR ME that HE ABSOLUTELY DID NOT DO IT !
Here's
something to consider about the author of this video,
Stefan Molyneux.
According to Steven Hassan, a licensed mental health counselor with experience on cults,"Partly what's going on with the people on the Internet who are indoctrinated, they spend lots of hours on the computer. Videos can have them up all night for several nights in a row. Molyneux knows how to talk like he knows what he's talking about, despite very little academic research. He cites this and cites that, and presents it as the whole truth. It dismantles people's sense of self and replaces it with his sense of confidence about how to fix the world."[6]
In 2009, Tu Thanh Ha wrote that Molyneux was called the leader of a "therapy cult" following Freedomain Radio (FDR) community member Tom Bell breaking off all contact with his family.[8] In April 2008, Bell had called in to the show asking about his veganism and his feeling of disgust towards people that eat meat.[7] Molyneux suggested that this disgust could have come from witnessing an authority figure who was cruel to animals.[7] Bell responded by describing memories of his father being verbally and physically cruel to the family cat, causing him to feel intimidated by the father, and then described his emotional detachment toward his mother and the rest of his family.[7]
The following month, Bell left a note stating he no longer wanted contact and left home. It was reported that, of the estimated 50,000 users of the website, about 20 FDR members had also "deFOOed" (disassociate from family of origin), and that many parents chose not to speak to the media in an effort to avoid alienating their children further.[7] A representative of the British Cult Information Centre said they were following FDR, and noted that one sign of cults was that they cut people off from their families. Molyneux responded by saying that "If I advised a wife to leave an abusive husband, there would not be articles about how I am a cult leader."[7]
Molyneux and FOO were subjects of an investigative documentary by Channel 5 in the United Kingdom, which aired on August 20, 2015.[9][28]
Molyneux and "deFOOing" were one of three subjects featured on the February 18th, 2016 episode of the documentary series Dark Net. The episode calls Freedomain Radio a cult.[29]

Nothing to consider except your motive for posting this tripe.
My wife cut off contact with her mother for a decade until she passed away and has never even wanted to see her mother's grave after another decade. Guess what? My wife has never even paid any attention to Stefan Molyneux or any other person you might want to label.
Furthermore, the fact that Steven Hassan was a dedicated member of a cult does not make him a reliable source for identifying cults and other false gurus. It indicates that Steven Hassan is a weak brained idiot that allowed himself to be suckered into a Svengali's magnetism.
The proof of his idiocy is that he didn't warn our country about the Cult of Barack Obama.

Considered,and rejected.
Aside from the fact that Hassan is guilty of EXACTLY what he accuses Molyneux of, that is pontificating with little to no supporting evidence though one can easily google Molyneuxs cites this and cites that references; the same can not be said for Hassans assertions.
Indeed, Hassan seems to confuse leaves wiggling on the trees as the CAUSE of wind the same way he explains Molyneuxs advocacy for removing toxic personalities from ones life. That those toxic people happen to be family members is completely incidental.
But youd know that if you listened to HIM instead of what someone on the interwebz SAYS about him.
