Weird Tract Number 65: "Heavenly Homes" by Moses David (David Berg) of The Children of God

Troy Davis writes:

The Museum of Weird and Demented Religious Tracts has a number of tracts by the predatory sex cult The Children of God (now known as The Family International). This is a typical barely-coherent batshit-crazy Berg rant-tract from the 1970s (it is dated October 21, 1974). The following is my favorite tidbit from the six-page pamphlet:

SO DON'T LET YOURSELF GET SUCKED IN BY THE BLURBS OF THE SLOBS of the great big globs of the world's city blobs! Don't become a blundering, blubbering, blabbering blobber yourself living in the midst of Babel's babbling Babylonian confusion!

Er . . . okay.

Read about other Children of God tracts in the museum's collection here , here, and here.
