AVOW is deeply involved with Chad Daybell and his new wife and also Julie Rowe. They're riding the edge of prepper apostasy.

$5 a month, eh? I wonder why the Mopologists don't do that? I mean, we already know the typical reasons they give--i.e., that they don't want to be seen as engaging in priestcraft--and yet, as we know, Dr. Peterson was paid over $20,000 one year to serve as "Chair of FARMS." (I see that he's denying this once again. Does he want me to post a link to the GuideStar site that shows the actual IRS documents?) I think the real reason is that they don't want to scare away any potential supporters. If everything is free, then yeah, sure: at least you are going to attract the Michael Hoggans and John Pack Lamberts of the world. At least *some* people will read your stupid stuff. Sure: of course he will point to somebody like Sam LeFevre, but then again, LeFevre recognizes how much of a clown DCP is, and even had to call him on the carpet for his dimwitted and thoughtless comments re: the coronavirus outbreak.

But what this also shows is that the Meldrum crew commands real power: they charge 5 bucks a month and people are willing to pay it. How many people would stick around if the Mopologists did something similar?
