The Common Sense Farm
มุมมอง 77K9 ปีที่แล้ว
‘The Common Sense Farm’ is a documentary short that brings us into the world of the Twelve Tribes, a communal Judeo-Christian religious group often referred to as a cult. Their insulated way of life has led to a fragile relationship with the outside world, sparking controversies, conflicts and misunderstandings on both sides of the fence. Director/Writer/Producer: Kathleen Russell DP: Charles F...

    Back in 2010 I had dinner with the Ithaca community at their house. I was rasied Mormon so I thought I was used to crazy brainwashing, but these people are a whole different creepy level.

    Most of my comments on top of what I already wrote three years ago below and posted in addition to that I didn't realize then what I realized now is that the Twelve Tribes didn't rightly divide the word of truth as 2 Timothy chapter 2 says, since what Jesus preached was "Only for the lost tribes of Israel" as Mathew 15 verse 24 shows, as well as Christ telling his deciples not to go to the Gentiles in Mathew 10. Currently we are in another dispensation then what Christ preached according to Ephesians chapter 3 verse 1 thur 5 and by the death of the testator (Jesus) in Hebrews 9 verse 15, this other gospel says we will be judged by Pauls gospel in Romans 2, so the danger is when people don't rightly divide the word they end up taking away some things like the Twelve Tribes that Paul taught by just going to the gospel that Jesus taught, for example Christ said that there's "a Cost to follow him in Luke 33 but in Ephesians 2 Pauls shows its a Free Gift now and many other differences of the two separate gospels. The apostle Peter warned about doing this and 2nd Peter chapter 3 verse 15 through 17 that if you wrest away what Paul taught your lost, this has much to do with not Rightly dividing Gods word to be approved in 2 Timothy 2 verse 15. These despenstions are stated in Hebrews 1 verse 1. This i believe is part of the deceptions in the last days as fortold by Paul that in the last days they will depart from sound doctrine so they will put up for themselves teachers according to their own desires. Watch Robert Breaker on Rightly dividing the word on U tube. Respectfully Martin.

    there's far worse people out there than them. Independent fundamentalist baptist if you look it up....are far far worse than these people. I believe the twelve tribes are a wonderful people but as for these places of the IBF or IFB they are hell holes by the survivors of such places.

    Thanks to the declaration of independence and the constitution there's religious freedom and many forms of freedom that shouldn't be restrained or restricted. This is why the twelve tribes could thrive, for they are completely innocent. Their life is so beautiful...

    They are only sweet and kind while you are doing what they want, believing what they want. There is no room for creativity or originality which is fine if you are a robot. It's really sad, because they have some neat things going on.

    😂 I like this first burnout guy who's milking the goats & talking abt the "preciousness" of the ppl who were raised there... He seems like the kind of person who it'd be interesting to get high with, but I'm guessing they don't smoke weed. (Or at least,not officially...) ETA: Ok, as this goes on I'm realizing he's actually super-duper brainwashed (and frankly perhaps a bit mentally ill)... but that got me thinking, maybe ppl susceptible to cult brainwashing are equally susceptible to brain "unwashing"... like, easily influenced is easily influenced, whatever direction that influence is in. So maybe if ppl like this (the ones who were lured in, not born in) were exposed to ideas that are somewhat more... "traditional" again... there'd be at least some part of them that would be open to it. I would imagine. Idk.

    I have found a lot of the former members who ran away as teenagers were all 14. I wonder what it is that makes them finally realize that what is happening to them is wrong or maybe it is simply at that age they are given a little more freedom so they therefore have the ability to run away than when it would have been harder or even impossible at a younger age due to people keeping watch over them.

    • @dougr6269
      @dougr6269 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      JL It's just like education -- if you rebel or conform your buttons are still being pushed by the same external pressure. The ones who leave are the rebellious ones and the ones who conform stay. If you raise a child as is best suited for them they will not depart from it. The community does not do that. They suppress the natural inner G'D given sense of wonder and curiosity and cause rebellion or conformity but like compulsive learning, it dumbs you down as much as rebelling and taking drugs.

      The 12 Tribes are white supremacists. There ARE a few members of color in some of the various farms around the world where the sect lives , but the "church" teaches them that they are 2nd class to white people and are supposed to "serve" white people aka be a slave.
