Churches. As a child, my aunt dragged me to Kathryn Kuhlman and at the ages of 5 through 7 I watched as Kuhlman 'healed' people through the power of God (hysteria). I saw a woman throwing up gall stones in the sink in the ladies room, cripples throwing away their crutches. She lived in a huge mansion on an estate in Fox Chapel. She gave food baskets to the poor once a year and her followers, that donated the food, thought her a saint for feeding people and donated more money. It was just the first thing that soured me on organized religion.

Sort of looks like a female Charles Manson in white.
