Our government can now take people away based on their “belief system”?
FDLS: Bring ‘em Young University.
When they break the laws of our country? YES!!!
Part of the danger to the boys is that their belief system requires that they follow the prophet
CPS needs to walk a fine line or this crosses over to an attack or religion.
There are legitimate reasons for the state to act in this case. This particular cults belief system is not one of them. The state of Texas just shot itself in the foot with that lame argument. They should read the 1st amendment sometime.
The state can use its police powers to controls actions, but not thoughts or beliefs - particularly religious ones!
Scary, isn't it? While in this case, I think that separating the children from their parents might not have been a bad idea, one must wonder how far this policy might extend. Could it be that some liberal judge will issue a warrant and the authorities will be knocking my door down any moment now? Perhaps conservative thinking will be forbidden in the future.

Yep..... You know things like murder, rape, other felony acts. Hell people fled Europe to these shores based upon their belief system. In other words a belief system is basic to things people do.
My boss, who is politically liberal and supports Obama (He says that no one but Obama is “addressing” the really important “issues”) says that people should have to get a license to become a parent. He says we license drivers and this is way more important than driving. He didn’t believe, as I said, that the system would be taken over by a group of people who would try to use it to reengineer society according to their own political beliefs. I’d guess that the reason he couldn’t see that danger is the same reason that he thinks only Obama is “addressing” the “real issues.”
The Dept. of Pre-Crime strikes again.
LOL! Good one!!!
What about the "lost boys"? That is a real tragedy. The ZOMBIE women of this cult are rotten parents and in my opinion, all of those children are in jeopardy.
Did you actually read the article?
susie
Islam has the same belief system that no bride is too young. Mohammed married a 6 year old. Imam point out that Mohammed is a great man because he waited until she was 8 to consumate the marriage.
Is the “Desert News” a real newspaper or an lds propaganda paper?
Does it preach to it's adherents to ignore common and established state law to protect minor females?
Does it create a belief that these laws should be ignored?
Does it 'program' young people to be sexual objects for the delight of old perverts?
By what standard of our society - standards we have established for the growth and raising of children, is marrying off 14 year old girls to nasty reprobates a good thing?
These people are not members of minority groups, where do they get off thinking milking the welfare system is a good thing?
Members of Islamic cults also push under aged children into arranged marriages with old family members, is that acceptable?
Till I see Texas screwing up, I'll continue to say: God Bless Texas!
Wait until fearless leader tries to create a more ethnically equivalent society with mandated birth supression patches and enforced abortion. Get us to China’s “1 child” policy. The state cannot raise more than one of your wards at a time, at least under current tax schemes. < /s >
A propaganda paper owned and operated by Mormons, who's founder who practiced the raping of young girls as an old old man.
One would assume that pelvic exams were conducted on all of the female children to determine if underage sexual activity was evident. Positive evidence of such would be a blanket condemnation of the belief system and resulting environment.
