He’s playing games to make an association between FLDS and LDS, even though LDS has disavowed FLDS. Some folks just want to take these threads into Mormon-bashing territory instead of sticking to commenting on the specifics of the story.
Honestly, some posters entire existence on here is do just that, for years now.
I think it is rather silly and stupid myself.
I certainly noticed that. The story has many interseting aspects-- legal, social, state power, when a society should tolerate funky religious beliefs and at what point is the line crossed into patently illegal behavior-- a lot to talk about.
Robust debate is cool, but seeing someone just bash another's religion for no reason other than to disply one's own bigotry is not particularly interesting.
Just a point of clarification, the LDS actually excommunicated the FLDS cult.
