restornu: “Really than stop distorting my faith, viper!” (Personal attack.)

dmw: "The truth is not distortion. If you don’t like to hear the truth about your faith then don’t come on the threads that reveal these truths."

“[We] were also told that floating through space were thousands of infant spirits, who were waiting for bodies; that into every child that was born one of these spirits entered, and was thereby saved; but if they had no bodies given them, their wails of despair would ring through all eternity; and that it was, in order to insure their future happiness, necessary that as many of them as possible should be given bodies by Mormon parents. If a woman refused to marry into polygamy, or, being married, to allow her husband to take other wives, these spirits would rise up in judgment against her, because she had, by her act, kept them in darkness.” - Ann Eliza Young, Wife No. 9, Chapter 18

The FLDS are STILL living by these polygamist beliefs. LDS still believe in the pre-mortal spirits needing earthly bodies, thus the large families.

The bus comment was made since I believe that it’s the government’s business to handle the matter from top to bottom. As I said before, many of the members of the group probably are good and decent people. Southern Baptists have over the years had problems with Jews, Roman Catholics, blacks and most recently Mormons (Huckster’s comments for Mitt Romney’s ears). As a RC, I’d prefer to witness through silence or in this case leave this squarely in the hands of the government.
