Ep. 124: "Ervil" Intentions- Ervil LeBaron & Our Lady of Fatima

Hey, spooky souls! Strap in, because today’s episode has everything: doomsday prophecies, murder-for-God, miraculous visions, and one cult leader who really put the “evil” in his name.First, we’re heading into the dusty, dangerous world of Ervil LeBaron: the self-declared prophet behind one of the most violent polygamist cults in American history. With a name like a Wild West outlaw, a Bible in one hand and a hit list in the other, Ervil preached blood atonement and wasn’t afraid to have his enemies (and family!) taken out if they crossed him. Then we flip the script, and go from cult leader to celestial encounter with the story of Our Lady of Fátima: one of the most famous Marian apparitions in the Catholic world. Be sure to drop your thoughts, your theories, or just say hey, especially if you’ve ever had a religious vision or escaped a toxic spiritual group.
