No one is equating defending Abraham and Jacob with these nut jobs in Texas.
Except you.

One of you Mormon haters once tried to say I was really Resty.
I think Resty would have been insulted.

LOL, and probably with good reason.

I think Resty would have been insulted. Well, seven, since you just "popped" in after 1000 posts to call us "haters", it's obvious why you could be mistaken for each other.

No one is equating defending Abraham and Jacob with these nut jobs in Texas.Excuse me. You guys and everyone else who is using them as an example to defend polygamy are the ones equating them.

Whatever. Some of us have real lives and events and travel take priority.
Some of us can also tell the difference in posting styles.
Just like some of us can also tell the difference between Warren Jeffs and Abraham.

“...Mormon haters...”
Speaking for myself, hatred implies a certain measure of importance in a persons mind, and you are not significant enough to qualify. Sort of like a slug on the bottom of my shoe. I do not hate it... I just find it to be rather nasty and disgusting.

“No one is equating defending Abraham and Jacob with these nut jobs in Texas.”
That was my point, the rest of us are trying to bust some child rapers down in Texas and you want to go into the bible to find a defense for them. Don’t be dragging all this bible stuff into this child rape cult bust taking place in Texas.
Let’s just root for the lawmen...oops, I guess if that was going to happen then you and I wouldn’t be having this interchange.
You need to get on the right side of this story.

"Some of us have real lives..." Life outside of FR is verboten... at least that's what they tried to convince me of during my free fish lip piercing service this morning.
I didn't buy it.
Now, if they arrange kelp to spell, "Eat more chicken," that would be impressive.

Nah, I will just call my computer guy who may have helped Don when he first bought the system. I hate to call him though because he does not charge me anything for what he does unless he replaces a part so I pay for that but not the work he does on the ‘puter. This system is so very complicated!

That is the funniest tag line I have seen here since I signed on at FR back in August 1982.

This rogue organization did not have a calling from the Lord, there is even a video where Warren Jeffs even admitt he is NOT a prophet.
Many want to deny that even in the OT that there are times that the Lord did sanciton plural marriage and that is what being brought to light. YES! the Lord did at times for his own purpose sanction Plural marriage on the earth but not this time!
No matter who like it or not!
It is a fact!
No one is defended this rogue evil in Eldorado!

No, I’m defending what Abraham, Jacob, etc. did. That isn’t even a close comparison. I defend because so many offend.

You have got to me kidding! This thread is and was a Mormon bashing thread from the getgo. Just look at post #3 and #4. It's goes downhill quickly from there.
#4
“The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Horndogs.”
If I am not allowed to defend the honor of my faith against the very real horndogs in Texas, then what's the point of Freedom of speech?
Now, that said, what the lawmen in Texas are doing is admirable, but they do need to be careful. There was a similar raid here in Utah on this same FLDS group in Southern Utah. It was 1953 and lots of adult men were arrested, and women and children were hauled off. There were a ton of legal problems with it, the state got into lots of trouble, and the polygs have used it for a rallying cry ever since. If you ever hear the term “remember Shortcreek” you will know what I'm talking about.
I hope Texas did everything right and by the book, or this could come back to haunt them too, just like it did Utah.
Here's a pic from the 53 Shortcreek raid:
