I'm going to attempt this w/o breaking TOS. I've been pondering this religion angle and I still can't really wrap my mind around the killing of eight people unless it was some kind of cult, and the Rhoden family does NOT remind me of any type of cult followers that I've heard of. They were, imo, like some other families, sort of clannish (living on the family properties, within an arms reach of one another, "Once a Rhoden, Always a Rhoden" motto, fighting in groups for each other, etc...) but that's about it. I don't see them letting a cult leader tell them what to do. However, in reading back through HMR's FB, she does look sad in much of her photos. Many of her posts don't seem happy. Of course she's a teen mom expecting her 2nd child, and unsure of who is the father. I'd be worried/sad too. There is one post that I found, not long before she'd found she was expecting, that led me to believe she'd been visiting a certain church, but had stopped. I'll not go further.
