Seriously, there have to be some really weak-minded people in FLDS land to fall for this stuff.

I have been involved with helping women who leave polygamy for several years. My husband is one of the few lawyers who do pro-bono work for those leaving polygamy. And I’ve been to Colorado City/Hilldale. They are totally brainwashed, if they aren’t they are kicked out with absolutely nothing.
Even the strong ones who leave, it often takes years for them to heal mentally, physically and spiritually.
These people need prayer above all else. Jeffs is beyond evil and this ‘reformation’ is directly taken from Brigham Young’s ‘reformation’ that coincided with the Mountain Meadows Massacre.
Expect another Jonestown or massacre. Expect blood before this is over.
How does this man, (Jeffs) still exercise any influence from prison? I understand the women are taught from birth to be subservient to men, having read “Escape” by Carolyn Jessop but are men also taught to be that committed to the “prophet”?
What I also got from that book is that F.L.D.S. are the true followers of Joseph Smith and the more numerous members of the L.D.S. are the apostates.
