I love how they can make growing up with parents in a cult commune sound so wholesome and normal - they were missionaries, yeah right.
The Children of God, a religious cult accused of promoting indiscriminate sex in the name of Jesus and which claims 12,000 members in 70 countries, was in the spotlight today after scores of its followers were arrested in Buenos Aires....
...The cult, which was founded in 1968 by Californian David Berg, was banned in France in 1978 after stories began to circulate of brainwashing and sexual abuse of children....

Yeah, I remember reading that River had sort of a goofy upbringing; guess Joaquin did, too.
