Thanks for clarifying this. In marriage, the idea of polygamy itself, is antithetical to the concept of holy matrimony.
Um, what? Who the heck mentioned evolution????
I think you’re either posting on the wrong thread or you need to check your medication.
Wanna give the people in this sect a good defense? Ya just did, idiot.
Btw, as for dealing with the illegals, I think since they are swarming into our neck of the woods, coming ACROSS your state, that we have good reason to think that authorities are laying down on the job.. so STFU yourself, pinhead.
Thank you for pointing that out. I believe it was wise of Texas to change the law.
Seniority in the Inmans has its perks. ;) Stick around.
Imagine the bruhaha if this were a Muzzie Moske...(deliberate SP)
Unless the husband can prove that he was "legally" married to the minor, then conjugal relations would be considered statutory rape. I dare say that NONE of these marriages were legal under Texas law.
If it can be proven that an adult had sexual relations with a minor, then the charge would be statutory rape, not polygamy. Further if the parents of the minor consented to the statutory rape, then they can be charged with conspiracy, and aiding and abetting and a whole host of other crimes including selling their children into slavery.
If they fail to prosecute these bastards, then they might as well remove all statutory rape laws from their books.
Obviously not. I live on planet Earth, where (unfortunately) nearly every different denomination believes all the others are WRONG, and believes other denominations are leading people to Hell.
Crack open a history book and educate yourself.
So, to give a simple answer to your original question, “do LDS dislike baptists?” The answer is YES, they DO dislike them, and vice-versa.
Quite possible that is the case. It constantly amazes me how folks supposedly can not simply state "such and such happened first, then this happened and then that person said blah blah blah."
Is it really all that hard?
Just try to find someone who is not Baptist friendly in west Texas!
Calling down biblical plagues on fellow freepers again, eh Moses?
That said, people should be free to live how they want (within the law) and shouldn't have to worry about raids because they live differently. JMO.
I think they just found an entire commune full of them.
A good and hopeful sign. The rape and abuse of young women / children is a disgrace. Certain acts in the name of religion are obviously beyond the pale. Demands for the imposition of sharia law to supersede civil and criminal law, the denial of competent medical care to children due to religious beliefs, the disruption of a funeral service, and this child abuse are examples of what I mean.
Right up to the point they start abusing kids. This compound has been there for years. The locals never “liked” it being there but never did anything about it until these allegations surfaced.
You have got to be kidding.
Forcing one's own children into slavery is not "living differently".
This is not about "polygamy", this is about child abuse, child molestation, rape, and sexual slavery.
None of the commune dwellers will be in the jury pool.
Not to mention a few million CATHOLIC mexicans. As far as I am aware, Catholics are not really fond of Baptists, and Baptists (since I attended the Baptist Church for 25 years I know this for FACT) are not very fond of Catholics either.
Yawn.... We need an update here. The children are getting restless and starting to fuss.
