You are talking about a small fringe cult, and they did receive outrage, plus serve time for their crimes. Iran, in the other hand is a large country with millions of people affected by this, and they are planning to LEGALIZE it.

Whackjob religious nuts. The more religion, the fewer human rights.
Maybe some day, we'll all be free of it......

Child molesters in the United States are arrested, this has nothing to do with the LDS church.

This is an outrageous violation of women's rights, and exploration of women in this country, what rights or choices does a child make when sold into slavery at age nine?

Shame on everyone who tries to derail this thread, from this out rage, and legitimizes child rape. Should a nine year old girl be expected to have sex with an adult male? Anyone who condones this is beyond disgusting.

These girls are just sold to the highest bidder. No opportunity for education, and probably pregnant by age 12.

My hope is that if these perverts came to the United States, the man would be put in prison, as a child molesters, and the girl, given refugee status as a sex slave, and allowed to stay here, in a decent country.

There needs to be an official statement of moral outrage from our country, which won't happen, our current administration just wants to kowtow to any country. We just put outrageous acts against human rights, in the IGNORE box.

Catholics are Christians. Presbyterians are Christians. Baptists are Christians. Lutherans are Christians. Episcopalians are Christians. Mormons are Christians. Pentacostals are Christians. Jehovah's Witnesses are Christians. Eastern Orthodox are Christians. Seventh-day Adventists are Christians. There are all kinds of Christians, and a person can be a Christian without your stamp of approval, Finn.

Their doctrines depart from yours, Finn, that's all. And thank God they do.

That pretty much describes what happens in the FLDS. (Which is NOT the LDS/Mormon church.)

There are men raping young girls TODAY, in this country, who are NOT in prison. They are, however, in places like Hildale, Utah and Colorado City, AZ.

We can shake our fingers at Iran but the truth of the matter is it's happening to United States citizens.

You are absolutely right. What's happening in Hildale and Colorado City -- as we speak -- is criminal. It's disgusting. It's despicable.

I wanted to be sure and get that in there.

No Mormon should ever be lumped in with that bunch of criminals.
