The Family

Every voter should watch this to understand how individuals whom were not elected, direct our country to their choosing, not the voters.

Well, as someone who was raised in the evangelical church myself, I find it oddly strange that at my age this is the first time I've ever heard of this group. After watching it all, I can't decide if it gives me the creeps or what. I will say one thing..... how evangelicals have somehow chosen to 'fawn" over Trump makes me just want to vomit and realize just how easy it will be for the Antichrist to come to power. Sorry, that's how I feel. Trump cares no more for them than he does the kids he's caging. On a sidenote, I found it both disturbing and destracting that one of the interviewers in the documentary was just this past year thrown out of our church as the senior pastor for sexual harassment. I also agree with one of the professional reviewers that the entire thing was too drawn out for 5 episodes; it should have been a documentary film instead.

None of this should come as a surprise to any informed viewer, but it's still a depressing, frustrating and annoying demonstration of how the human species can fail at having human values. On parade in these episodes are an endless number of ignorant, hubristic, deluded sociopaths who believe that their personal vision of Jesus has given them the right to take everything and control everything. When they're not patting each other on the back and hiding each other's crimes, the members of this worldwide cabal are plotting and scheming their way to riches and world domination where the vast majority of the human race will bow down to them as God's chosen people. They are disgusting and pathetic creatures, hypocrites and liars, wilfully ignorant fantasists and as morally bankrupt and greedy as any group of villains who ever lived. They're also extremely well-connected and currently hold the reigns of power throughout the world. Their survival depends on secrecy, so I'd advise everyone to watch this series, and to cast their future votes wisely if they happen to live in democratic societies. This entire bunch of depraved narcissists will discover that their imagined God will not protect them once the world shines a real light on their execrable activities and horrible beliefs

I've been saying for years that Hollywood would never touch the right wing Evangelical cult that has been secretly controlling Washington DC for decades. NetFlix deserves kudos for finally bringing this into living rooms. Perhaps the (s)election of Donald J. Trump and his "God will build us a new planet if we destroy this one" Vice President Pence inspired NetFlix to dive into the book and make this documentary. As a documentary, the style is OK. I'm not sure if I like the merging of recreated events with the historical footage. I think a Ken Burns approach may have worked better. This country is not a JudeoChristian Theocracy. We have something called Separation of Church and State. Running the country based on Old Testament fairy tales is akin to Iran, Iraq, Egypt, Saudi Arabia running their countries based on the Koran. Religion in politics is recipe for disaster. As we in the United States are experiencing now, with Evangelicals calling a narcissistic failed businessman the "chosen one." Great job NetFlix. A documentary, despite its flaws, that everyone in this country should see.

Made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Confirmation of what many have long suspected but never knew for certain. It's time to pay attention to separation of church and state. Vote religion OUT of government.
