Don Weirwille was ordained at about the same age as the family attended some conference run by someone who I'm sure veepee later plagerized. The ol' man was proud of that for sure.
And running in a very parallel universe...
This show is closer to the oy vey way most would realize.
No, the congregation can look at it and say "this is nuts," and walk away. The child cannot. The adults responsible for this poor kid's maturity and personal growth are morphing him into a parody of what they want him to be. They should be ashamed of themselves.
And if this makes me judgmental, so be it. Getting a little tired of suspending good sense for fear of violating some ridiculous rule against exercising sound judgment anyway.
Hmmm. Could have been worse.. could have named the kid victor in memory of gramps or something. Then raise him to think he has a "ministry" or something..

Don W was?
And not by his father?
(His father sure respected that "ordination" later on in life!)
Child abuse...hadn't thought of it quite like that. More like congregation abuse.
