Thankfully it only took 4 years in Texas.
What were they thinking?
Did they really think that Texas would put up with this bull?
Texas was just waiting for a chance to bring these perverts down.
Next time, stay in Utah!
I have no problems at ALL with Romeny or his religion. I was trying to point out that the “ image “ of Mormons overall is hurt by this cult.

Things like this make people learn about the religion’s fundamental beliefs and it makes the “milk instead of meat” method of gaining new followers just a little more difficult.
An update.
ELDORADO - The children taken from the Mormon splinter sect compound were housed Saturday at Eldorado’s community center and the First Baptist Church fellowship hall, sleeping on donated cots and eating food dropped off by Eldorado residents.
The food was cooked by Sutton County Steak House of Sonora, about 20 miles south of Eldorado.
The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints stays in seclusion, eating food grown at the compound and minimizing contact with the outside world - the extent of which became apparent as the children sampled what the steakhouse had to offer, said owner Linda Love.
“They didn’t even know what a steak finger was,” she said. “They’re singing songs. So happy and sweet and precious. It’s heartbreaking.”
Church volunteers and Eldorado residents bought diapers and food supplies from the local Super S Food Store, dropped off bottles of water and wheeled cases of soda in shopping carts. Some came in hopes of volunteering, but signs on the door to the fellowship hall said officials only accepted donations.
Many church members and officials were helping Friday and Saturday, said Shea Politte, whose husband, Sylas, is the First Baptist Church youth minister and helped coordinate the church’s efforts in providing buses and supplies.
Politte declined to give specifics about the church’s new tenants.
“I don’t want to jeopardize their rights,” she said. “They have more now.”
O.K. I admit I don’t even know what a steak finger is. Sounds disturbing.

I served many a steak finger and gravy when I worked for Dairy Queen.
My memory of it, is that it is a fast food bag of pieces of tenderized round steak that is breaded and deep fried, I think they were about 3” long and an inch wide.
They are like chicken nuggets, except they are beef, and you dip them into gravy instead of the chicken nugget sauces.
” And just because some people of their faith once practiced polygamy, just like some folks in the good old Biblical days did, “
They stopped doing it 13 years before Bob Hope was born.
What’s a “chicken nugget”?...sound gross! Is it something you wipe off your shoe? ;)
You will be hard pressed to find a Mormons who thinks polygamy is a sin and was a sin 160 years ago.
I am well aware that the mainstream Mormon church no longer practices it.
There have been many mainstream Mormons on FR who have defended polygamy.
I will never agree with them, and I am not one to shy away from saying so.
LOL.
I’ll take a ‘nugget’ over a ‘finger’ any day!
I can assure you that here in the midwest, they don’t serve fingers at Dairy Queen.
Go to Wendy’s for that. :)
No more than Christianity's image is hurt by the bakers and swaggarts of the world.
In some cases, the children may have escaped the frying pan only to land in the fire. Animal products such as deep-fried steak fingers, dairy products such as Vermont cheese, and particularly processed foods such as are usually available at 'Super S' convenience stores are known to cause heart disease, stroke and dementia in the 80% of Americans whose diet consists predominantly of such foods high in acrylimides & hopelessly low in nutrients per calorie.
I certainly hope that evidence of abuse on the compound is substantiated or, relatively, the kids may be worse off in the steak house than they were on the compoound...at least nutritionally.
No doubt, however, that the kids are NOT facing the dire threats of imminent incarceration that they would be facing if Hillary & Bill were back in the White House...
Here is a recipe for ‘steak fingers’, tasty stuff.

Oooops...”incarceration” should be “incineration”...imminent, that is...
John 10:30
I and my Father are one.
John 14: 15-17
"If you love me, you will obey what I command. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever-- the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
Hmmmmmmmmmmm.......don't see the Council of Nicea mentioned there at all.
But, I guess why should we believe this Jesus guy anyway, right?

At least now they stand a better chance of dying as Christians, and a much less chance of being molested, used, and abused.

The apostles never believed in a three person Trinity. That was hatched out of the Council of Nicea. See Colossians 2:9: For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.Really? Try the Gospel:
And there are Three who give testimony in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost. And these three are one.1 John Chapter 5,7
See post 438.
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit."
