Everything you said is correct, but I will tell you a sad thing.
The krsna,s are going through a crisis at present, and the trouble started in the 70,s. There having a lot of problems with some bogus devotees, who have managed to work their way into the managment of the movement, and there are allegations of child abuse and sexual misconduct.
Th ...[text shortened]... which is disassociating itself, from these deviates.
So now we have two Hare Krsna movements.
I would be interested to see who has more problems-hares krsnas or say Jehovas Witnesses. I suspect stuuf like that will even out as long as there is some decent moral leadership within the group. Most devotees of any religon want to do their best to uphold their faith, etc.
All I can do is try dish out justice as I see fit, based on what I have seen.
I will not persecute people on second hand evidence, whether they be christian or hindu.
