jamesm12341 - tomorrow is my birthday. Is there any way you could refrain, for just one day, your bullying, name-calling, goading, juvenile and non-productive posts?

Thank you.

I''m going to take a moment to point out that most of us grow up without being sexually abused as a child, barbaraf4. That said, are you saying that the cult should have been allowed to keep the children and continue abusing them? Are you saying abuse is not really that awful? Do you have any kids or grandkids?

The Jessop lady thats been working for more than four years with law enforcement said in an interview two days ago that babies were being beaten and the had their heads held under water until they stopped crying, and this little torture session until they were too exhausted to cry. Under Texas law CPS could''ve, on that alone, entered that compound and those kids. Why didn''t they do this four years ago when she started talking to them, why wait for a bogus phone call?

I think they should pass a new law that requires children who are being home schooled should be tested as to their knowledge of the US Constitution, and as to their knowledge of free choice.

They need to understand that their religion cannot take free choice from them, and that they are required to live by the law of the land, BEFORE religious beliefs are applied to their lives.

Considering the girl whom sparked the raid with an E911 call hasn''''t been found I have to wonder if the raid is the result of over zealous Texas Child Protective Services employees or an over zealous sheriff. Considering my experience with the Texas Child Welfare people I strongly suspect this a shoot first and justify the action later.

They have found 16 year olds with four babies...how do you account for the years she was breeding when she was basically a child.

And so, do you just think those people should''ve ignored the calls and done nothing? Maybe they should''ve just went...oh shucks, too bad, a bunch of inscestuous old men having *** with children and using them for breeding stock. Oh well...

It''s the against the law to have *** with minors without a LEGAL marriage license in Texas. These girls were spiritually married, nothing legal about it at all. On top of that they were taught that they had to obey and had not choice! I believe under the Constitution of the US, those girls should have been educated that they DO have a coice!

Normally, I would agree and applaud on this with you. However, experiences can and do differ from area to area. I attended a charismatic southern baptist church when first moved into my new neighborhood. We have since quit attending and the other day several of the youth tried to drag my son in off the street to attend a bible study session. Now I do know it is not this way with all of these churches, but it is true of many.

Is this True Progress? Maybe one of her students?

Children have been abused by their parents since the beginning of time. That does not make it right, but it is an unfortunate fact of life. There are ugly secrets behind the front doors of America.

[skeezix06]

This is not about Job and his daughters. This is about 420 children who are apparently being abused by the people who are supposed to protect them.

It is commission of a crime by the cult and as such removal of the children to ensure their safety and the adults should be prosecuted thoroughly.

"that is such a fu(ked up statement, it brings a jaw-dropping pause of disbelief and disgust -

just because the book of mormon encourages incest - it don''t make it right" Posted by sbbm

Go back and read about Job and his daughters. It''s the Bible and it''s incest.
