...not to mention the exorbitent amount of 'God's resources' spent on the device...i mean, for the money it takes to buy a camera phone you could buy 4 subscriptions to Daily Success for families in need!
I really don't think that camera phones can document what life in a training center is like. Most of the abuse is mental, emotional, and spiritual. While there is physical abuse, it is mostly in the form of exceedingly long work hours, excessive containment, etc. Although I wish I had some before and after pictures of the training center when Mr. Gothard shows up. Talk about hypocrisy--the directors ran out and bought stuff, only to return a lot of it after he left.
Hee hee! I love the complaint letter, especially the part that says "Mr. Gothard is like a giant octopus sprawling its slimy length over city, state, and nation."

Are you sure IBLP staffers would own camera phones in the first place? Wouldn't it be too tempting to take a picture that might defraud the young men?
