I get angriest when my daughter has problems (which is frequent) and my ex-wife who I was forced to marry calls me continually about all kinds of problems between my daughter and her son or my daughter and my ex-wife's boyfriend. (She and her boyfriend are caretakers of an apt building I own where she and my daughter are living). My daughter had a child out of wedlock and has had big problems taking care of her son. She was molested and raped by a COG member and when her problems flare up (she's now 32) I get angry and get very negative feelings. I do feel that Berg was intsrumental in my accepting Christ so I am thankful for that. I just can't figure out how someone who claimed such a closeness with God could flush all the good that could have been accomplished down the toilet. What a total waste and that pisses me off as well. Berg claimed to be so intelligent and all I can think is "what a stupid idiot". I'm not angry all the time just sometimes. And I do feel like beating the crap out of a few people from time to time. If I went to live on a South sea island somewhere with no telephone I doubt I'd think about any of it.
