At 14, Lauren was moved with her family to Kansas to live in the Westboro compound. There, Lauren found a new community offering both a warm welcome and a complex set of rules and regulations, including curbs on her teenage freedom and punishments meted out unjustly. The WBC's modus operandi is its aggressive and vitriolic campaigns against anyone and everyone it deems immoral or sinful -- the United States military, the Catholic Church, homosexuals, and more. Over the next seven years, Lauren would try to assimilate their extreme beliefs. She traveled the country as an active and vocal picketer, spouting the church's message of hate at public events, with shockingly offensive signs promoting their agenda. But as she matured and began to question and bristle against some of the church's tenets, she was unceremoniously cast out, and permanently cut off from her family. BANISHED is the story of one young woman's journey into and out of a world of extremists, and of building a positive new life out of the ashes of her old one. 000467400 5831_ $$acommitted to retain$$c20150501$$dretention period not specified$$fALI SP$$5InES 000467400 60010 $$aDrain, Lauren. 000467400 61020 $$aWestboro Baptist Church (Topeka, Kan.)$$vBiography. 000467400 61020 $$aWestboro Baptist Church (Topeka, Kan.)$$xHistory. 000467400 650_0 $$aReligious fundamentalism$$zUnited States. 000467400 650_0 $$aChristian sects$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000467400 650_0 $$aBaptists$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000467400 650_0 $$aExile (Punishment)$$xReligious aspects. 000467400 650_0 $$aDemonstrations$$xReligious aspects$$xChristianity. 000467400 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xChurch history. 000467400 7001_ $$aPulitzer, Lisa. 000467400 85200 $$bgen$$hBX6495.D725$$iA3$$i2013 000467400 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:467400$$pGLOBAL_SET 000467400 980__ $$aBIB 000467400 980__ $$aBOOK
