FLDS church teachings lead members into financial mire The Salt Lake Tribune/May 5, 2004 By Brooke Adams The year 2000 wasn't supposed to happen. As the millennium approached, many followers of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints felt encouraged to max out...

Child welfare investigator Angie Voss testified that some of the children who they have spoken to have said they were told if the heavenly father tells the prophet they are to marry at any age, they are to do that. And if the heavenly father tells the prophet they should lie, then they are to...

I am female. I think a girl should have the right to choose who she will marry, if she will marry, and at waht age she will marry. She should also be aware that a man having many wives is not gods creation, but man made. Instead, the cult girls see only this lifestlye and are taught this is...

What is not civil about my response to tradernik? He thought maybe people who are in defense of this cult could be christians themselves who feel they need to defend christianity. These are thoughts and speculations, no one saying they are facts. So what is nutjob about expressing thoughts...

It was a joke Ratboy. I know these are not flds girls. But flds girls (and boys) by the laws of their religion have no right to outperform in anything. You are not dumb. I know you see how they are held back from choices, and their lives are dictated by a few....but what is more strange...

Yes!! That is the video I tried to send. How did you put the link in? It is windows media player and I tried to attach with elite trader system. Did not work for me. How did you do that? Anyway, funny video, and also beware of holding education and expierence back from women...

WomendriversLOL[fromwww.metacafe.com].wmv One more try?

No, not the same one, but you CRACK ME UP RATBOY! Here, type this address in your browser EXACTLY as I have wrote it below WomenDriversLOL[metacafe.com].wmv

WomenDriv...wmv (7.6 MB) Ratboy, here is what happens when women are not given the priveledge to learn to drive a car...then they escape and try on their own. :) Some "comic relief" for you.

I won't keep talking and talking my point of view, but one more thing to say. The yfz ranch is considered to be where the "elite" and chosen ones of god have the priviledge of being allowed to live. And these elders from the elite ranch when they "pick" their new very young next wife, this...

Of course, they are only taught the laws of their religion. Sometimes I think legalizing polygamy would solve some problems..maybe. If legal, then nothing to hide from, all ways of life are open to view, learn, question, compare, then decide if it is waht a person wants for thier life..and...

Weep for the constitution that could not defend the victims of a cult who are deprived of knowing their rights.

I said this before, its not so much polygamy, but forced polygamy becasue it is the only way of life they are taught. And telling a child of 14 she has to marry a much older man or she will invoke gods anger. What kind of god is that? But you make very good points. You are right, this...

Yes, someone should intervene for the childs benefit. Children need someone to speak for them, becasue they cannot always undertand enough to speak for themselves.

Deluded is not waht these women are. They know nothing else but what was taught to them. How many women raised outside of the compound and informed of their rights and choices in life would choose to not only marry a much older man when they are very young, but one that has many wives? And...

I am curious what would be response if this same situation were reversed and women were founders and leaders of this ranch and these were their teachings of god. Women could have many husbands. Men could have only one wife. Baby boys were taught from birth that god has chosen them to be one...
