Library

We are making a concerted effort to keep track of any and all relevant documents, articles, letters and internal leaks related to the COG and it’s history, both distant and recent, to better provide a resource for people looking to learn the truth about the damaging past of the COG.

We also encourage people to step forward with any internal information and submit it us, completely anonymously and without fear of reprisal from the cult.

Submit sensitive documents here.

Feel free to share anything that may not be listed on this page and we’ll add it in. Comments are enabled.
