Clearly the guy, while obviously struggling to be a decent human being, wasn't outright vile initially.

clarify? evidence?

that was eventually accepted by a group that took advantage of his desire for being part of something?

what group was he accepted by? evidence?

He got divorced twice. His best friend died. One of his daughters is institutionalized. His girlfriend left him. That kind of stuff can cause someone to feel like they have no control over their own life

That would be a true feeling based on the evidence you supply. Of course! He/you/I/we do not have control over our own lives. We are not gods. Dealing with that is part of humanity! Please tell me who was exempt from this. We cannot all be Henry VIII. Every person whos eyeballs land upon this have had such tragedies befall them.
