“THE FAMILY”

"Unlike other Christian right groups, they don’t really believe that you’re in power because you’re a good person.They believe that they are the “new chosen,” that you’re chosen for power by God. And when you’re in that position, it doesn’t matter what you do." "They are chosen by God, regardless of how brutal they are. "
