Let’s talk about the Maxwells.

Who in the hell are they?

Steve Maxwell and his wife are fundy traveling evangelists. He’s about my age. For a while, they apparently had a big bus/RV, and traveled about with their kids and did whatever it is they do at fundamentalist churches in exchange for an “offering.”

They and their large family (forerunners of the Quiverfull types) became targets of Free Jinger.

That’s fine. I’m sure I would consider Steve Maxwell to be a jerk and not want anything to do with him or his idiotic religion, but Free Jinger didn’t leave it at that.

In 2012, several Free Jinger members followed Steve Maxwell to a church where he was appearing with his family.

This is tantamount to following the man to his job.

They then took photos of each other “humping” the bus/RV which was called Uriah.

One of them wrote a narration of the events as they unfolded.

So, they went to Steve Maxwell’s place of work and entered the building and then went and listened to his wife speak.

This is a Free Jinger person walking up to the man in his place of business and confronting him with how badly she dislikes him and doing it in the name of Free Jinger. And furthermore, her husband doesn’t like him either, so there.

We are everywhere and we are watching you.

Consider that.

I checked and it appears that the children they confronted were, in fact, over 18. I doubt that would have stopped them had they been minors, but they weren’t, so that’s good.

Remember that from the other page?

The whole bit about the Helpmeets? (God, that sounds like something from the Handmaid’s Tale.)

I suppose that they established that because of things like this crashing of the Maxwell’s work place?

Well, no.

Oh, well, that person only had 100 posts, so she probably didn’t know about the Helpmeets and the kibosh thing. She’s not representative of anything, is she?

How about this one? How about 5314 posts? How about “FJ fundiecrasher award of the year”?

How about a thread with 53 pages? How about page after page of kudos and not one word about any kiboshing? How about I couldn’t find a word where somebody said, “Gee maybe this was a little over-the-top”?

But hey, that was in September, 2012.

They didn’t Helpmeet or kibosh back then, but they totally do now. Right? So nobody goes over-the-top, like barging into a man’s place of business and accosting him while he’s doing his perfectly legal job (even if you don’t like his job) and then attacking his grown children.

I’m sure they Helpmeet and kibosh now.

I guess not.

This is the forum that collectively bashed the hell out of me for riding down a public road.
