Manage episode 384160274 series 2898906
Anthony Spurgin's parents joined a Traditionalist Catholic group when he was 12. At the age of 14, rather than going to high school, Anthony became part of a Traditionalist Catholic home-schooling co-operative. He talks about the traumatic effects of involvement with the group and especially the focus on sex as sinful. This talk shows how important it is to assess groups to see if they are authoritarian. A wide-ranging conversation about Christianity and religion in general.
