Can I join The Family?

Hi,

From their website The Family appear to want to present the image of a harmless christian organisation. Doing good volunteer works around the globe. And doesn't mention anything about any communities or community life.

Also something I was wondering about was that exfamily says that The Family used to have racist ideas. What was the nature of those ideas? And if that is what they believed why are they pictured on their websites doing good deeds around the world? i.e. helping people of differing race. Also I read that "mo-letter" "The girl that couldn't" about Toni and Lora. I read that 'Lora' was 'keda sky' and was the head of the Asia branch or whatever) so they were a global organisation even back in those days. Again how does this work if they had racist ideas?

How does 'The Family' work today? Do they live in communes? Where are the communes? Is it easy to join up? I'd like to experience what life is like inside the group - how could I do that? Is there a group in the UK? or near the UK? What would I find at the London address given on the website?

Thanks
