Just imagine what we will see happen , in the media, on TV talk shows, and right here on F.R. when the JUDGE denies returning some of the children to the ‘mothers’ who try to claim them.

It will be interesting, whatever the outcome, that's for sure.

Yes, little girls and little boys should absolutely be protected from any form of abuse!

Do you believe the State has the right/duty or obligation to allow cults to raise children, particularly females from birth to believe their to be sex objects for adult males. It would kind of cut down on the b/s we've seen on these threads?

The problem is that people take everything to the extreme.

I have a liberal friend who thinks that I'm doing this with my daughter. I'm raising my kid to go to college, to be everything she can be; BUT, once she becomes a mother all bets are off. Her commitment is to her children first. My friend sees this as raising her to be a slave to her family and to forget her own ambition. In *her* mind, I should be raising her to "have it all".

Yes, this is a cult. But there are people out there who would see conservative values to be right along the same lines.

My daughter is doing the same with the oldest grandkid. Actually took her to see Ollie North today at a book signing.

And the sweet kid is a big fan of Ann Coulter of course......

Is the “Desert News” a real newspaper or an lds propaganda paper?


The deserert News is a LDS paper founded in the mid 1800s and they so admit......

Adoption of FLDS name is akin to identity theft
Joseph A. Cannon, Editor

........In the days following the raid on the Texas polygamous compound, I took a call from a St. Louis radio host requesting one of our reporters to come on his show to “talk about the situation in Utah.” Early in this cordial conversation, I informed him that this newspaper is owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and that I am a member of this church. .......

I'm raising my kid to go to college, to be everything she can be...

This past Saturday my oldest grandchild graduated from college at age 25. It was a long, hard road for him, and for his mother, grandfather and me. (He lives with his Pop and me), along with the advice he received from my other children...his uncle and aunt.

This young man graduated cum laude despite his belief that he has suffered brain damage due to withdrawal from Prozac and has been adamant against antidepressive meds ever since.

That any of us truly believed it was important for him to be degreed could remotely be considered "cult" thinking is absurd. My grandson looks forward to a month of study in Germany in June to enhance his knowledge of the language.

Too often labels are bandied about where they don't apply...sheer ignorance.

I question whether the judge will allow any child to return to the YFZ polygamous community. The Texas authorities removed these children from what they claim is an abusive environment. How can they allow even one to go back?

The only reasonable solution I can think of is that a mother who can prove which children are hers would have to give up this polygamous lifestyle and live in the "real" world with her children.
