Aaron Finkelstein turned to his friend’s cultic religious group for fellowship and a spiritual experience. That he found, but his pursuit of a personal relationship with God became a trek through a maze of legalism and confusion of doctrine. Extortion and money laundering were part and parcel of doing business with a homeless and penniless ministry. The mandate of a celibate ministry and the ban on homosexuality were obviously difficult to police, and their investigative methods into transgressions seriously flawed. There was curiosity and suspicion of members of minority ethnicity, and acknowledged duplicity in judgment when incidents involved those members. But what to do about the life savings Aaron had given them?
