While your post is interesting it really should have been posted in reply to the original article. It had nothing to do with me or my post.

Actually, it did.

If the Texas CPS can grab children from their parents without charging someone with a crime simply because they can allege wrongdoing in the home, then they can do the same to anyone. Provided they can whip up public sentiment against that group first.

The passage from scripture is therefore quite apt.

There was plenty of evidence. Maybe they overstepped and maybe they didn’t but clearly at least SOME of these children were abused. These families ALL lived in a comunal home. Therefore the children were all at risk.

Also, if you choose to equate 13 year olds forced into marriage with old men and 12 year olds being homeschooled, that’s your business but I don’t think most homeschoolers would appreciate it.

CPS has plenty of problems but they did this one just fine as far I’m concerned. It aint over until the fat lady sings and she aint sung yet. More will come out of this and I hope plenty of these FLDS nut cases end up in jail.
