My problem with this show is that some people say they can see that this is portraying extremists within the church but most people are using this show as some kind of proof that every member of the church is in a cult that is evil. The members in the church in the show are all super weird and unlike any I have ever met but to be fair it is Utah in the 80s. The church doesn't and never did support the craziness that happened in this story and people say current members are biased but ex members are more biased in their hatred and accept any negative portrayal of the church as validation for that hatred
