An Atheist in an ocean of Theists

“While it is unfortunate that some victims of a crime may go unpunished…”

Why do you want to punish the victims? Haven’t they been through enough already? The perpetrators are the ones who should be punished.

Texas deserves credit for trying to see whats happening there. But I could see them being on shaky ground, legally. The courts have given the order in accordance to law. I am sorry for the children, as things will likely be only worse. The Polig's have been playing this game a long time, they're good at it.

I think Polygamy should be legal. I just don't think children under 16 should be getting hitched. 16 in my opinion should be the legal age of consent. It works good in many cultures. We are actually one of the very few that have the age at 18. I also think if you can serve your country in war at 17 you should be able to make all the decisions of an adult, to include smoking & drinking. That's my opinion. Beyond that, There is nothing wrong with polygamy.

You already do that for all the traditional families that can't take care of their kids. It doesn't matter how many sires their are. These women would individual have kids as well. That's the beauty of their communities, they take care of themselves. It's the traditional families that're having problems making ends meat. ;-)

Isn't it interesting how much Welfare FLDS people receive compared to "Traditional" Families...

Well more power too them!!! Work the system!

True...

I just think it is wacky that society has to pay for people with 15+ kids or so that are on welfare... I didn't get the pleasurable benefits of sexual intercourse so I don't see why I have to pay for their kids... That is why I use condoms...

Whatever religion, or non religion they are apart of is inconsequential... You have to be able to provide for your children. I am willing to lend aid to a certain extent, my hypocrisy goes only so far... ~L~O~L~

Work for something... Wow dracco73 you are way out there... ~L~O~L~ Just Kidding!!!

If everyone takes a little from Sam, there won't be anything left for Sam to give... If everyone Gives a little to Sam, Sam will have plenty to give... Sam being everyone in our society in general.

It only takes a little... to get a little.

I'm sorry, but the last time I checked it was a crime for a 30 or 40 or older man to marry a young girl under the age of 18. Not to mention all of the laws they are breaking by practicing polyagomy. I am disgusted that they allowed those innocent children to be returned to that lifestyle, they really could have saved alot of children, instead they have condemned them to an even crueler life... No doubt now that this community is aware that they are being watched they will lock down even tighter...
