Trivia
The Jesus Christians are a Christian millennialist network of communes on five different continents. They occasionally do volunteer work, are frequently active politically, and regularly distribute Christian comics, books, pamphlets, and DVDs. Most of their publications are written by their co-founder, Dave McKay. They were founded in Australia in 1981 by Dave and Cherry McKay and have had a three-decade-long history of controversy documented extensively by the media.

Interesting

Interesting and challenging compared to the usual religious "cult" type documentaries. Instead of protesting funerals, these believers are doing an unusually powerful statement beyond what most are willing to.

The leader is bonkers, because of course he is, but his faith has taken him in a direction that is very noble. He wants attention, and schemes to get it, with the aim of finding more followers who are willing to donate everything.

The question becomes about how much a personal dislike of someone should colour your judgement of their actions. If followers are going to be exploited, isn't it better to be in pursuit of saving lives?
