FLDS child abuse

• Absurd Inurbane Witless

Joseph A. Reaves and Mark Shaffer, The Arizona Republic on the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

The Arizona Republic has found that many young men have been encouraged to leave both towns, sometimes under pressure from a church-controlled police force, so older religious leaders can more easily woo teen brides. ...

The FLDS teaches that the only way a man can reach the highest level of heaven is to take at least three wives in this life.

The child abuse and sexual abuse is terrible as are the manipulation and control that occur in so many of these situations. The misuse of the school and the government funds are also unaceptable. However, I don't believe that polygamists should be pursectued under law unless any of the above occur. As long as the man is only legally married to one woman, and as long as all of his wives are consenting adults at the time of the "marriage" , who cares how many women he lives with?? It is not the job of the courts to enforce moral law.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about FLDS child abuse. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
