Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey

This mini series is very well documented, and a great but shocking watch. If you are interested in a series about cults, you should definitely check this one out. The overall storyline of this documentary is well put together; nothing feels rushed, or stretched out.

How any human being can treat others in this way is beyond my comprehension. May he rot in the depths of hell. I cannot imagine how one would overcome this kind of treatment.

Ever since the smash hit success of 'making a murderer ' , Netflix is seemingly on a mission to make the multi episode docu series the way we get our documentary thrills.leave the feature lengths versions to the multiplexes and give the public the truth in bite size chunks they seem to be saying. Whilst this format seems to have worked for the aforementioned 'making a murderer ', tiger Kong' etc, the subscription channel has fallen short in this approach when the subject matter hasn't the legs to sustain our interest over multiple hours of viewing. Take the interminably dull 'bad vegan', a story so stretched, it should have been sponsored by spandex or the completely unnecessary 'tiger king ' sequels. 'keep sweet' bucks this trend and if anything is too short. It's tale of a corrupt sect leader and the power he wielded over his followers is too brief. With a scant 46 minutes or one episode devoted to the punishment of his crimes and the subsequent affect it had on congregation. That's not to say the preceding three episodes are over burdened with extraneous detail, on the contary, they are nicely paced and just the right side of informative. Pity the final episode is in too much of a rush to get to the finish line because 'be sweet' had the potential to be one of the most compelling documentary series of the yeah.

It's beyond me how people can be brain washed to this extent in today's world. This documentary is absolutely eye opening and sad in so many ways. It actually makes you mad that guys like this can acquire so much power and how he took advantage of so many people. It's definitely worth watching but get ready to be shocked that this kind of crap goes on in our country. Warren needs to be in jail for the rest of his life. A complete idiot that needs to have his ass kicked.... Sorry but that's the way I see it.

...also being abused by this freak of nature. It wasn't just little girls he was raping, but little boys as well. So I docked a few stars for that, there is zero mention of the boys: There are definitely documentaries about them, possibly on YouTube.

No ONE person with human emotions can handle any degree of extreme power. Look at so many examples, including those who supposedly are crusaders for justice (cough cough got any more homes for sale in Beverly Hills for the rest of us clowns who marched on your behalf?)

I'm convinced that there is nothing but corrupt people out there, all trying to convince the rest of us to follow some good path or cause: It's all garbage.

Religion is the same, evidently.

This is a really good documentary, I liked hearing from the people themselves...but again, I think the absence of all the little boys was a bit uncool. Little boys are just as helpless as little girls. They ALL deserve protection.

I cried a few times watching this: The women who lost all their children to that cult...KNOWING what is going to happen to them. If that piece of garbage sitting in jail (can someone just off him, ffs??) is telling all the old bald men to diddle the eight year olds...NOTHING changes!!

We need more infiltration. Normally I am one of those who feel that everyone has a right to their own world/fantasy as long as they keep me and mine out of it. But this sort of thing...? It's really hard to stay neutral about it.
