Uniting Church Minister (Doctorate in the spirituality of Japanese flower arranging) and self-proclaimed “Cult Expert”.

• In 2005, the day before Kenja is attacked ruthlessly and corruptly by the tabloid press over Cornelia Rau lies – David calls asking to interview Ken.
• He claims he is writing a book on the misuse of the word 'cults' and claims Kenja is not a cult and he intends to help us and wants to “investigate” Kenja.
• This is a very similar story to that of Melissa Maclean.
• Ken welcomes him in.
• David attends anything he wishes in Kenja.
• He tells us what an asset Kava is in dealing with his parishioners.
• He tells us of his involvement with ASIO (he says he reports on “cults” to them)
• A quote from David Millikan – his answer to who should be allowed to determine the legitimacy of differing views on spirituality?
  
  ‘… if it’s going to be resolved, it can only be resolved by the mainstream religions who get together – this is my dream – that they get together and they decide amongst themselves what is good religion and what is bad religion… but it is up to religion in the sense that you say to the state “This is what we think is good religion...” ’ *

• His reputation is tarnished somewhat by his betrayal of other groups (such as ours).
• After turning up to early morning children's activities inappropriately “the worse for wear” after a night out, and his often inappropriate behaviour including that with young women, Ken calls him to task.
• Ken often challenged David on his integrity to his (David’s) ministry and his integrity in his dealings with the groups that he pretended to befriend, and to his own God. Ken asked him to leave after he announced his intention to betray the agreements he had initially made with us.
• For this, David never forgave Ken – for example this interview on ABC Radio, Australia Talks (30 July 2008) – one year after Ken’s passing: “Ken Dyers… I have no respect for him... I didn’t like the man at all.”
• One of the most despicable, atrocious actions that anyone calling himself a man of the cloth could engage in occurred after Ken’s passing. David wrote for the Sydney Morning Herald a slanderous, despicable, deceitful and personally vengeful article the weekend after Ken’s passing. This was David’s personal payback to Ken, since someone who has passed on cannot sue.
• David’s trouble with the courts for defamation is well known, so he attacks Ken after his passing.
• David Millikan is not welcome at any Kenja activity, and should be exposed as a potential betrayer to any group he approaches.
