A Complete Investigation into Institutional Religious Control and Its Deadly Consequences

I SAY, ENOUGH! The Time for Polite Silence Has Ended. 

Children are dying. Not metaphorically. Not theoretically. Right now, tonight, in Utah's valleys and mountains, young people are planning to end their lives because the psychological pressure has become unbearable. Utah maintains America's highest youth suicide rates while institutions accumulate billions in wealth and power.

We have watched. We have documented. We have treated the casualties. Twenty-five years of operating therapeutic businesses in Utah have shown me the systematic institutional practices that drive children to despair—practices that prioritize organizational reputation over human lives, financial control over family welfare, and institutional loyalty over child protection.

This Ends Now.

Abundant Life Family Care launches not as another therapeutic option, but as an emergency response to institutional failure. We will not compromise. We will not negotiate with systems that sacrifice children for power. We will not partner with active participants in the very institutions creating the trauma we're designed to heal.

The Stakes Could Not Be Higher

Every month we delay comprehensive action, more families are destroyed. Every week we remain diplomatically silent, more children lose hope. Every day we prioritize institutional comfort over child welfare, we become complicit in their suffering.

ALFC exists because traditional approaches have failed catastrophically. Because children's blood cries out from the ground for justice. Because someone must finally say what everyone knows but fears to speak: systematic institutional religious control in Utah is killing children, and we will not stand for it any longer.

Our Line in the Sand

We will work with survivors. We will heal the traumatized. We will protect the vulnerable. But we will not—we cannot—partner with active adherents of the systems creating this carnage while maintaining any therapeutic integrity.
The children have waited long enough. Their healing begins now.
When God Says "Enough"

"How long, O LORD, will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? How long shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long will my enemy be exalted over me?" - Psalm 13:1-2

What began as concern about Utah's inexplicably high youth suicide rates has uncovered something far more sinister and systematic than I ever imagined. This exposé represents the culmination of decades of firsthand experience within Utah's institutional power structure, combined with rigorous analysis of public data, documented evidence, and objective assessment tools that reveal the true scope of institutional religious control in Utah.

God help us. Forgive us.

We can no longer remain silent while children die, families are destroyed, and democratic governance is subverted by religious oligarchy masquerading as Christianity. The blood of Utah's children cries out from mountainsides and valleys, demanding justice, demanding accountability, demanding that someone finally speak the truth that could save lives.

This investigation reveals not just statistical correlations, but systematic institutional practices that create the very conditions driving America's highest youth suicide rates in areas of concentrated religious control. We have uncovered a web of financial deception, information manipulation, legal system capture, and social control that operates with impunity while claiming divine authority.

The Time for Silence Has Ended

"For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to keep silence, and a time to speak." - Ecclesiastes 3:1, 7

This is our time to speak. Every day we delay, more children die. Every week we hesitate, more families are shattered. Every month we remain silent, more lives are crushed under the weight of institutional systems that prioritize power and wealth over human dignity.

We present this evidence not as an attack on individual faith—many of the victims we seek to protect are people of sincere religious conviction—but as an urgent call for institutional accountability that can no longer be delayed or diplomatically avoided.

In this hour of crisis we pray to you Heavenly Father, we beg for your forgiveness…have mercy on us all… when children's blood cries out from the ground and institutional pride has replaced the heart of Christ, every soul—leader and follower, victim and perpetrator, the silent and the complicit—must fall on their faces before King Jesus in desperate confession of how far we have strayed, cry out for true repentance that transforms hearts of stone into hearts of flesh, surrender completely every trace of self-serving ambition and institutional loyalty that has eclipsed His glory, plead for supernatural strength to obey His commands to protect the least of these regardless of personal cost, and by His matchless grace return with burning passion to our first love—Jesus Christ crucified, risen, and coming again to judge every deed done in His name.

The Scope of Our Investigation: What We Uncovered

1. The Statistical Reality: A Public Health Crisis

Our investigation documents Utah's consistently ranking as #1 in America for youth suicide rates, with correlations to areas of highest religious institutional control. These are not isolated incidents but systematic outcomes of institutional practices that create unbearable psychological pressure on the most vulnerable populations.

2. The Institutional Power Structure: Religious Oligarchy

We reveal unprecedented religious monopoly in State governance—85-90% of Utah's legislature from one religious group, systematic control of legal systems, business networks, and social services. This represents a form of religious oligarchy unique in American history.

3. The Financial Empire: $100+ Billion in Hidden Wealth

SEC violations, secret investment funds, and systematic financial deception while members sacrifice financially, and children lack mental health resources. We document the largest accumulation of religious wealth in American history, operated with unprecedented secrecy.

4. The Cult Assessment: Objective Evaluation

Using established academic criteria for identifying harmful religious organizations, we developed and applied a comprehensive assessment framework. The results are devastating—systematic cult characteristics across every measured category. No wonder the suicide rate is so high!

5. The Biblical Analysis: Institutional Christianity vs. New Testament Faith

Measuring institutional practices against the standard of apostolic Christianity reveals systematic contradictions between claimed restoration and actual practices that mirror the very religious systems Christ opposed.

6. The Human Cost: Voices of the Victims

Behind every statistic lies human suffering—families destroyed, children driven to suicide, communities polarized, and democratic governance compromised. We honor their stories and amplify their voices.

Our Mission: Saving Lives Through Truth

"And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." - John 8:32

Primary Mission: Save the Children. Every aspect of this investigation serves one ultimate purpose—ending the systematic institutional practices that drive Utah's children to suicide at rates higher than anywhere else in America. This is about protecting the most vulnerable members of society who cannot protect themselves.

Secondary Mission: Restore Democratic Governance. Utah State democracy cannot survive religious oligarchy. When single religious institutions control government, legal systems, business networks, and social services, constitutional governance becomes impossible. We seek restoration of genuine democratic representation and equal opportunity regardless of religious affiliation.

Tertiary Mission: Institutional Accountability. Religious freedom does not include freedom from accountability when institutional practices create measurable public harm. We demand transparency, oversight, and reform of any religious organization claiming tax-exempt status while operating massive business enterprises and influencing government policy.

Our Purpose: Light in Dark Places

"The people who walk in darkness Will see a great light; Those who live in a dark land, The light will shine on them." - Isaiah 9:2

This exposé serves multiple critical purposes:

Truth-Telling for the Voiceless. We give voice to those who have been silenced by institutional power—suicide victims, abuse survivors, families destroyed by religious manipulation, and communities suffering under oligarchic religious control. Their stories deserve to be heard, their suffering acknowledged, their deaths vindicated.

Warning System for Vulnerable Population. By documenting systematic institutional practices and their measurable outcomes, we provide early warning systems for individuals, families, and communities at risk of similar harm. Knowledge saves lives.

Educational Resource for Professionals. Mental health professionals, educators, community leaders, and policymakers need objective tools for identifying and addressing religious institutional harm. This investigation provides frameworks and evidence for professional intervention.

Legal Foundation for Accountability. Government agencies, law enforcement, and legal professionals require documented evidence to justify intervention in religious organizations claiming constitutional protection. This exposé provides comprehensive documentation of institutional practices that warrant investigation and potential prosecution.

The Subject: More Than Utah, More Than Mormonism

While this investigation focuses on Utah's unique concentration of religious institutional control, the principles and patterns we document apply broadly to identifying harmful religious organizations anywhere in America.

Utah as a Case Study. Utah represents the most extreme example of religious institutional control in American history, making it an ideal laboratory for studying the effects of religious oligarchy on democratic governance and individual welfare.

National Implications. The methods of control, financial manipulation, information management, and social pressure documented here appear in religious organizations nationwide. Understanding these patterns protects communities everywhere from similar systematic harm.

International Relevance. Religious institutional control operates globally. The assessment tools and intervention strategies developed here can protect vulnerable populations worldwide from harmful religious organizations claiming divine authority while creating human casualties.

Our Desired Outcome: Comprehensive Institutional Reform

"Learn to do good; Seek justice, Reprove the ruthless, Defend the orphan, Plead for the widow." - Isaiah 1:17

Immediate Objectives:

End Utah's youth suicide crisis through institutional accountability
Federal investigation of systematic civil rights violations
Financial transparency for all religious organizations claiming tax exemption
Legal system reform to prevent religious institutional capture
Protection systems for children in high-control religious environments

Medium-Term Goals:

Restoration of democratic governance in religiously dominated areas
Equal opportunity enforcement regardless of religious affiliation
Mental health resources specifically addressing religious institutional trauma
Educational programs about healthy vs. harmful religious practices
Support systems for individuals and families leaving high-control religious groups

Long-Term Vision:

Constitutional protections strengthened to prevent religious oligarchy
Research programs studying the effects of religious institutional control on public health
International cooperation in identifying and addressing harmful religious organizations
Prevention programs protecting vulnerable populations from religious exploitation
Genuine religious freedom that protects both faith expression and individual autonomy

Mitt Romney: The Carpetbagger Who Failed Utah's Children

Perhaps no figure better exemplifies the institutional failure documented in this exposé than Senator Mitt Romney—a man who never lived in Utah before seeking office, never served the state in any capacity, but was elected solely because he carried an LDS temple recommend.

During Romney's six-year tenure representing Utah, youth suicide rates continued climbing to the nation's highest levels, drug addiction and overdose deaths skyrocketed, and the very institutional problems killing Utah's children went completely unaddressed. Instead of using his senatorial platform to investigate the systematic religious institutional control creating Utah's public health crisis, Romney spent his time obsessively undermining Donald Trump and positioning himself as the "conscience of the Senate." A bona fide loser, clearly.

This represents the ultimate indictment of Utah's religious oligarchy—a carpetbagger senator elected purely for his religious affiliation while Utah's children died in record numbers, and he did nothing. Romney's legacy will be that of a man who could have used his unique position to save lives and reform harmful institutional practices, but chose personal political theater over the welfare of the very children his religious institution claims to cherish.

Here is the good news. Accountability day has arrived for Romney, both in this life and the next, and history will judge him as a senator who failed when Utah's children needed advocacy most.

"For everyone to whom much is given, from him much will be required; and to whom much has been committed, of him they will ask the more." - Luke 12:48

A Prophetic Call to Action

"Cry loudly, do not hold back; Raise your voice like a trumpet, And declare to My people their transgression And to the house of Jacob their sins." - Isaiah 58:1

This exposé represents more than investigative journalism—it is a prophetic call to the American conscience. When religious institutions claiming Christ's name create systematic conditions that drive children to suicide, silence becomes complicity. When tax-exempt organizations accumulate billion-dollar empires while members sacrifice financially and communities suffer, diplomatic courtesy becomes a betrayal of democratic values.

To Government Officials: Your oath to protect and serve includes protecting vulnerable populations from institutional religious abuse. Constitutional religious freedom does not include freedom to create public health crises, capture legal systems, or systematically discriminate against citizens based on religious affiliation.

To Mental Health Professionals: The correlation between religious institutional control and community mental health problems requires professional intervention. Treating individual symptoms while ignoring systematic institutional causes perpetuates the very problems you're trained to solve.

To Community Leaders: Your communities' welfare depends on equal opportunity, transparent governance, and protection of vulnerable populations. Religious institutional monopoly destroys the social fabric that healthy communities require.

To People of Faith: True Christianity protects the vulnerable, serves the poor, and operates with transparency and accountability. Any religious system that creates the opposite outcomes—harming the vulnerable, enriching leadership, and hiding its practices—has departed from the faith it claims to represent.

To Parents and Families: Your children's lives are more important than institutional loyalty. When religious organizations create environments where children suffer disproportionate mental health problems, parental protection must override institutional expectations.

Part IV: Biblical Analysis - New Testament vs. Institutional Christianity

Comprehensive comparison between apostolic Christianity described in Scripture and documented institutional practices, revealing systematic contradictions.

Part V: The Rally Cry - Call to Action for Justice

Urgent call for individuals and communities to act on behalf of suicide victims and vulnerable populations suffering under institutional religious control.

The Moral Imperative: Why We Must Act Now

"Rescue the weak and needy; Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked." - Psalm 82:4

Children Are Dying Today. While we debate religious freedom and constitutional protections, children in Utah are planning their deaths tonight. Every day we delay comprehensive action, more young lives are lost to systematic institutional pressure that creates unbearable psychological burdens.

Families Are Being Destroyed. Mixed-faith families face systematic pressure that tears apart marriages, separates parents from children, and creates generational trauma. Community support systems favor institutional loyalty over family welfare, abandoning those who need help most.

Democratic Governance Is Compromised. When single religious institutions control supermajorities of elected officials, court systems, law enforcement, and business networks, constitutional democracy becomes impossible. Equal representation and equal justice under law disappear when religious oligarchy captures government systems.

Truth Is Being Suppressed. Information control, critic silencing, and systematic retaliation against truth-tellers prevent communities from understanding the true scope of institutional religious harm. Without accurate information, vulnerable populations cannot protect themselves or make informed decisions about their welfare. It is the spirit of Joseph Smith, the disgraced false prophet.

Our Commitment: Truth Above All Else

"Buy truth, and do not sell it, Get wisdom and instruction and understanding." - Proverbs 23:23

We commit ourselves to unflinching honesty in presenting this evidence, regardless of personal cost. This investigation represents:

Decades of Direct Experience. I operated therapeutic treatment businesses within Utah's institutional power structure for over 25 years, witnessing firsthand the systematic patterns documented in this exposé. I attended too many funerals of future generals we lost way too early. I can’t forget them. I won’t forget them. Joseph Smith is experiencing his day of reckoning right now, and many will follow him right into hell.

Rigorous Documentation Standards. Public records, official documents, statistical data, court filings, SEC violations, academic research, or credible investigative journalism support every claim. We present no unsubstantiated allegations.

Objective Analysis Methods. Our assessment tools apply established academic criteria for identifying harmful organizations, focusing on observable behaviors and measurable outcomes rather than subjective theological judgments.

Victim-Centered Approach. Every aspect of this investigation prioritizes the welfare of those harmed by institutional religious practices—particularly children who cannot protect themselves and families destroyed by systematic manipulation.

The Call to Conscience: What Will You Choose?

"And if it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." - Joshua 24:15

This exposé presents every reader with a fundamental choice:

Comfortable Silence or Courageous Action. You can continue scrolling past obituaries of young people who "died unexpectedly," or you can demand accountability from institutional systems that create the very conditions driving youth suicide rates to America's highest levels.

Institutional Loyalty or Human Dignity. You can prioritize religious respectability and diplomatic courtesy, or you can prioritize the lives of children and families being systematically harmed by institutional practices that contradict the very Christianity they claim to represent.

Willful Ignorance or Painful Truth. You can dismiss this evidence as "persecution" or "anti-religious bias," or you can confront the documented reality that religious institutional control creates measurable public harm, particularly to the most vulnerable populations.

Perpetual Victimization or Systematic Reform. You can accept the status quo that sacrifices children and families on the altar of institutional power, or you can demand comprehensive reform that protects vulnerable populations while preserving legitimate religious expression.

God Help Us: A Prayer for Justice and Mercy

"If My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land." - 2 Chronicles 7:14

Father God, forgive us.

Forgive us for our silence while children died. Forgive us for our comfort while families were destroyed. Forgive us for our politeness while institutional systems claimed Your name and created the opposite of Your kingdom. Forgive us for caring more about religious respectability than human suffering. Forgive us for allowing institutional wealth to accumulate while Your little ones lacked resources for mental health care.

Lord Jesus, have mercy.

Have mercy on the families who lost children to institutional religious pressure. Have mercy on the survivors carrying trauma from spiritual manipulation and abuse. Have mercy on the communities polarized by religious oligarchy masquerading as democracy. Have mercy on the sincere people of faith trapped within harmful institutional systems. Have mercy on us all as we confront uncomfortable truths about institutions we trusted.

Holy Spirit, grant us courage.

Grant us the courage to speak the truth that powerful institutions don't want heard. Grant us the courage to act on behalf of those who cannot protect themselves. Grant us the courage to prioritize human welfare over institutional comfort. Grant us the courage to demand accountability from any organization claiming divine authority while creating human casualties. Grant us the courage to choose justice over respectability, truth over diplomacy, and children's lives over institutional reputation.

In the name of Jesus Christ, who said, "Let the little children come to Me," we pray for complete exposure and comprehensive reform of every system that harms Your precious children. Amen.

Conclusion: The Truth Will Set Us Free

"And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." - John 8:32

This investigation represents the most comprehensive documentation of religious institutional control and its deadly consequences ever compiled. The evidence reveals systematic practices that create measurable public harm while claiming divine authority and constitutional protection.

The truth is uncomfortable but undeniable. The evidence is overwhelming but actionable. The choice is clear but requires courage.

We can continue enabling systems that sacrifice children for institutional power, or we can demand accountability that saves lives and restores democratic governance. We can remain silent while more families are destroyed, or we can speak the truth that sets captives free.

The children who took their lives in Utah's mountains and valleys are watching. Their families are waiting. Their communities are suffering. King Jesus is preparing to settle accounts with every institution that harmed His little ones while claiming His name.

How will history remember your response to this evidence? How will the children's spirits judge your action or inaction? How will King Jesus evaluate your choice when truth and institutional power collide?

"For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad." - 2 Corinthians 5:10

The time for comfortable silence has ended. The time for diplomatic courtesy has passed. The time for prioritizing institutional feelings over children's lives has ended.

This is the time for truth. This is the time for justice. This is the time for comprehensive reform. This is the time to save the children.

The evidence follows. The choice is yours. The children are waiting.

"Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me." - Matthew 25:40

P.S. This is only the beginning. What you have just read is the foundation—the undeniable evidence that demands action. But the complete picture is far more devastating and comprehensive than this introduction reveals.

The full exposé consists of five additional investigations that will forever change how you view institutional religious control in America:

"Exposing The Utah Deep State: A Call to Save God's Children" - The complete statistical breakdown and systematic documentation of how a $100+ billion religious empire operates while children die at America's highest suicide rates.

"Understanding Religious Cults: Identification, Methods, and Social Impact" - The objective academic framework that reveals how to identify harmful religious organizations using measurable criteria rather than theological opinion.

"LDS Church Assessment Using Cult Identification Framework" - The shocking results when objective cult criteria are applied to Utah's dominant institution, revealing a score that predicts exactly the community devastation we observe.

"The Cries of the Children: A Call to Stand for the Voiceless" - The rallying cry for every person of conscience to join the fight for justice and vindication of those whose voices have been silenced forever.

"Where Are Our Champions?" - The urgent appeal to America's most powerful change agents to deploy their resources and influence to save Utah's children before more lives are lost.

Each article builds upon the last, creating an irrefutable case for immediate action. The children cannot wait. Justice cannot be delayed. Read them all—their lives depend on it.

May God grant us the courage to act on this evidence, the wisdom to implement comprehensive reform, and the mercy to heal the wounds created by institutional religious abuse. The children are counting on us. Their blood cries out from the ground for justice. How long, O Lord, will we wait to answer their cries?

"He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God?" - Micah 6:8
