Friends find their calling

By Lou Kilzer, Rocky Mountain News
February 28, 2004

One of the world's most admired animal sanctuaries has a skeleton
tucked deep in its closet - one with a history worthy of its own
miniseries.

The Best Friends Animal Society runs the nation's largest "no-kill"
shelter in Utah and raised $19.9 million last year alone.

But more than three decades ago, its key founders formed a movement
that was accused - falsely, they say - of being a satanic cult.

Best Friends President Michael Mountain, 57, says The Process, Church
of the Final Judgment, was just a group of young people searching for
spiritual truth in the crazy atmosphere of the late 1960s and early
'70s. http://bestfriends.nexuswebs.net/med...icle22804.html



THE WORLD'S LARGEST AND MOST BELOVED ANIMAL SANCTUARY ...
or THE MOST SINISTER SATANIC CULT EVER TO EXIST?
This site exposes the mysteries that have surrounded the founders
since 1967.

It matters not what happened in the past but it is what they do presently
that matters.

The fact is, this article appeared in Colorado's finest newspaper, the
Rocky Mountain News, and was written by a two-time Pulitzer Prize
winning investigative journalist. But I guess that's not good enough
for you, huh?

If your definition of a "kook" are people with the intent to inform
animal-loving people that donate millions of dollars to help animals,
where their money is going, then I guess you're right. All the public
records, recorded documents, are on the website. Check it out before
making such rude comments. You may learn something.
.. . .
Had the group of 20+ founders not stayed together for 35 years,
changing the corporate name and their personal names several times, I
would agree that their past wasn't as important as what they are doing
today. But look at what they are doing today and who these people
really are. Couldn't you help a lot of animals with 20 million
dollars a year? Probably many more than they are.

I have a feeling that in the not too distant future, you'll

completely
contradict yourself on this statement on some other subject. So, I'm
archiving your post on my hard drive for future reference in a
microsecond.....

Wouldn't it be cool if when he did he turned completely inside out and
disappeared?
