Comments on: Insider's View Of Polygamist Sect

Women In Them Are "Breeding Machines," Woman Who Escaped One Tells The Early Show

[byeneocons]

"(Polygamy is) a life where, as a female, you really don''t think for yourself, you''re basically told what to do. You really are just a breeding machine to further the agenda of the male patriarchy,"

I had no idea Laura Bush was a polygamist.

Did you even READ the article? This isn''''t about religious freedom. It''''s about abuse of children you great buffoon."

You''re right, however, it goes deeper than even that.
It''s really about "gender slavery"
In this little group, women and children are property and are treated as such.
Completely denied of any form of civil rights.

Check out Oprah''s new religion on youtube.

There are always those who criticize some movement that they left behind. Republicans become Democrates, Catholics become Protestants. It proves nothing except someone wants something else. Almost all children leave their parents behind. This is not unusual. So this propaganda is useless in determining right from wrong. What the truth is, this country boasts of religious freedom. Why does it not practice what it preaches. Why must we kidnap, arrest, and prosecute those who we do not agree with. I say, leave people alone. Let us quit minding someone else''s business.

Maybe it''s because of idiots who don''t know the difference between "loose" and "lose."

I''''m going to found my own religion which REQUIRES me to sit in front of a big-screen TV and watch NASCAR and Formula 1 all day with beer! Woo-hoo! Who wants to join?

Well, is this or is it not a "freedom of religion" arguement? Where does freedom of religion trump basic laws of society? Incest, pedophilia, statuatory rape - these don''t sound like principles of any normal religion. But there are plenty of cases of children dying because they were denied medical treatment because of their parents'' "religion". I hope that some day we move beyond superstition and ludicrous belief systems.

The leaders even brag that they collect welfare and food stamps for all the children that are born of these "unions". It is really disturbing to know that these women and children are used and abused in this way and do not have any sense of autonomy.

While I agree these places can be very dangerous and some sort of oversight should be suggested. There is a fine line between protecting people from themselves and invading their privacy. Especially when all three branches are going to be democrat within a year.

Be careful with what the media are shoving down your throat for legislation, it could be party propaganda not in the interest of Americans.

[janeyre-2009]

Yes, the tax payers are taking care of these children. What male, can provide for 75 children? Hmmm, the women are kept bare foot, pregnant, uneducated for a reason. The pedophiles, don''t want them to think, without being told.

[culturechang]

All in the name of the Lord. Isn''t crazy what religion can talk poeple into believing? We, as a soceity of mostly Protestants and Catholics, believe this abuse of women and children to be wrong. However, we continue to stick by the same common religious belief (with Mormonism) that says prostitution is a sin....and its not specifically listed in the ten commandments as a sin in any those religious sects.

[stanleyrice]

Sounds like the judgmental, ego centric society, is again vindictive, and repressive of anything they see as different from themselves.

The societal cure may be worse than the alleged "aliment".

The other thing that gets my attention is, hundreds of thousands of women and children (younger than 15) are being slaughtered in Darfur, and Americans ignore it! I''m certain your ego can justify that too!

Every time you point your finger at someone, three of your fingers point back at you!

[theroo4]

Polygamy is nothing more than pedophelia!! Throw these guys in jail where they belong!!

[pierson98]

Thank you Republican Party, remember how you
villainized Janet Reno! She was trying to do the right
thing, and stop this kind of demeaning of woman. Why
would a woman ever vote for a Republican? For the same
reasons woman keep going back into these cults

I see. You would rather these women just be burned alive?

[dixiecharms]

Keep in mind, folks.....the American taxpayer gives lots of money in welfare benefits to these women and children. That truly disgusts me!

There''s no one woman amongst them who could stop this...NO WAY, not even close
