No Persuasive Proof

Posted in The Evil that They Do tagged , , , , , , at 2:24 pm by Brian

As some of you may remember, Bill Keef and Ardith Keef filed a Protection From Harrassment order against an old fellow up protesting at the church (God bless him.) After two half days of hearings, the results are in. While judgement was made on the 20th, I have just now seen the official paperwork. I will have it scanned in as a pdf in the next day or two. For now, this is the breakdown:

After hearing on 11-07-08 and 11-14-08, at which the plaintiff was present and the defendant was present, the court denies the plaintiff an Order For Protection for the following reason(s): The court finds that the plaintiff is not entitled to the requested relief because the plaintiff has failed to prove that the defendant abused/harrassed the plaintiff as the term “abuse”/”harassment” is defined in 19-A M.R.S.A Section 4006 or 5 M.R.S.A. Section 4651(2). The temporary order for protection issued by this court on 10/20/08 is TERMINATED and of no further force or effect and the Complaint For Protection is dismissed. No persuasive proof of intimidation, confrontation, or stalking since agreed upon order ended on 10/5/08.

Both the complaints from Bill Keef and Ardith Keef were dismissed. One has to wonder how they will attack now? An interesting facet to this is the fact that website articles were written and protesting occured after the first, agreed upon order, ended on 10-05-08. It is clear that neither the protesting, or the articles written, constituted intimidation, confrontation, or stalking, as well as abuse or harrassment, under Maine law.

Never Alone Again

Posted in The Journey at 10:17 pm by Brian

There are always ups and downs when dealing with a group like AMF. The downs, of course, are obvious. Broken homes, hurt children, families wondering why, why, why. Why is this happening? Why wont our loved one have anything to do with us? How can we be hurt so much, over and over, and they think it’s OK? That their doing the work of Jesus himself?

But there are some ups too. One of the things you realize is that your not alone. That the feelings that course through you are shared by others. There are others out there, that have seen, felt, been immersed in the same kind of pain that you have. Never would you wish it on anyone, but the knowledge that the group, and it’s leaders, have hurt others before you is sobering. On the one hand it hurts. It hurts knowing that people you once called friends could do such incredible damage to good people and never bat an eye. But, then again, when they’ve done the same thing to you, it’s good to know that maybe, just maybe, someone has an idea of the pain your feeling.

Victims of cults like AMF, or leaders like Ardith & Bill Keef, you are not alone.

A Letter From The Cult Leaders Child

Posted in The Evil that They Do tagged , , , , , at 9:28 pm by Brian

This letter was received in 2007. I am not posting the persons name, for obvious reasons. It relates to William Keef, the “Pastor” of AMF. The owner of the home where my wife and children currently reside. For obvious reasons we hesitated to post this, given the suffering of the person involved. However, it’s time for the full truth to be known.

I have been building up the courage for five years to confront my father for the unspeakable and horrible abuse I suffered from him as a child.

I am encouraged by your website and organization, and would like to help you in any way I can.

It is painful for me to read some of your blogs because I know how true everything you write is. Memory of ‘church’ has been like a forgotten bad dream.

Not so my memory of personal abuse, the reality of which I have to confront regularly.

I don’t have an internet connection at home, but I check my email weekly or so- I’m not sure what I am ready to tell anyone, but I am afraid for ALL the children who are exposed to him, as well as to Ardith and believe they should be completely shut down.

It is especially frightening that she is a guardian ad litem.

Well, I must wrap this up-

Email me sometime

[NAME WITHHELD]

Hmm….. well, that sure is an attention getter. And some people wonder why I post this blog and expect to get my children (and wife for that matter) out of that hell hole at all costs.

The Cult Preacher Strikes Again

Posted in The Evil that They Do tagged , , , , at 7:38 pm by Brian

Well, folks, the cult preacher has struck again. You see, they didn’t like the signs an old man held up in front of church last week, so now they accuse him of things such as drive bys, taunting the cult preacher, and peering into vehicles and their home.

All these lies, Billy, just because you dont like the sign? Come on, now, what’s that good book you preach say about lies? Of course, it doesn’t say nice things about marriage, or respecting parents, or anything else you interpret for the flock, eh?

Well my cult preacher friend, I tell you this: You will answer for the lies you tell. Maybe not immediately, but we both know you will. To think you would do such evil in the world, hurting people left and right, and think that your immune is a great surprise. I know you Bill, and I know that you know better. First you take my wife and children but now you just flat out lie rather than face the truth and results of your actions.

Do you still wonder why the whole world thinks your a cult?

Musings

Posted in The Journey tagged , at 3:47 pm by Brian

I was watching R30 today and heard an excellent instumental version of Resist by Rush (as written by Neal Peart.) For the good of all I’m throwing out some of those lyrics here for everyone. It’s a good reminder of life, fighting, and winning.

 

I can learn to close my eyes
To anything but injustice
I can learn to get along
With all the things I dont know

You can surrender
Without a prayer
But never really pray
Pray without surrender

You can fight
Without ever winning
But never ever win
Without a fight 

If the cause is just, the fight is always worth joining.

Mediation? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Posted in The Evil that They Do tagged , , , , , , , , , at 9:12 pm by Brian

As many of you know I’m being sued by a cult group over some of the things I have had to say about them. Personally, I look forward to it as they WILL have to answer for an awful lot of things. I have to wonder if maybe a little fear is creeping in. I found out from my lawyer today that there appears to be a mediation scheduled with some third party agency.

Time and time again requests for meetings and discussions were asked for, by myself and others, to set this straight. Now that I have lost my family to this insidious evil group they seem to want a mediation. Well, in the words of the co-cult leader, Ardith Keef:

There will be no meeting.

Good luck in court, cult leaders! Of course, if you don’t want to go through with it you can certainly withdraw your case, but, whether you withdraw or not you need not expect any meetings or mediations with me. You’ve taken my wife, you’ve taken my children. You have made me a man with nothing to lose. I will give no quarter, I will not disappear, and I will let no one, ever, forget what you are and what you represent.

To Anchor Members

Posted in The Journey tagged , , , at 9:31 pm by Brian

Hello Anchor Folks,

As I’m sure you know, there was a court hearing today, but I’m not going to bother to discuss what happened in that hearing, though it was enlightening.

No, quite honestly, I would kind of like to know why it is that my wife had to walk into that hearing alone, with no support whatsoever. You’ve all clearly made your choices. If you’re going to support something this far out of line, you could have at least shown some support for my wife. Honestly, I don’t care what anyone says… it’s scary to go into a hearing. It’s scary to have to go on a stand and give testimony, knowing you will be cross examined. Right or wrong, it’s still a very frightening experience.

Ruth is obviously determined to go through with this divorce. If you’re going to support it, and you clearly are supporting it, the least you could do would be to support her as she goes through it. Leaving her all alone to fight for Anchor’s divorce was certainly uncalled for.

Even now, I expected better of you than this.

StartYourOwnCult.com

While Reverend Billy Boy of the AMF cult has received no formal “Pastor” training, it seems pretty clear that he’s getting direction from Dr. Lazarus at www.startyourowncult.com. Really, check out this little tidbit on cult member family relations:

Since you and your cult are now their Family, members don’t need to see their former family. Ex-spouses, parents and sometimes even children are sometimes not very understanding of members who have seen the Truth, and may try to convince them they have made a mistake. It can take a very strong mind, and much re-education, for a member to see how Lucifer has influenced even those close to him or her, and they may be inclined to believe those they used to be close to. I would refuse categorically to allow members to attend family events such as marriages, sick relatives, graduations, and what-not.

Or, how about this little gem on how to use a scapegoat to hide your lies:

There are many ways to deal with these problems, but the safest, quickest, and most effective way–shown time after time–is to find a scapegoat. Properly chosen and exposed as someone who has Fallen into the Clutches of the Evil One, your scapegoat will absorb the blame for just about every error or transgression you can think of.

A scapegoat isn’t just about blaming someone, though. Think of the scapegoat as a heaven-sent opportunity to further His Will in this vale of tears. So, before looking for a scapegoat examine the situation.

Obviously, startyourowncult.com is a spoof on a phenomena that is shocking and harmful. Nonetheless, the writer does a great service by exposing these dispicable cult actions in a humerous format.
