Thomas Fleming on the FLDS...

Thomas Fleming on the FLDS...

I hate to post anything by Thomas Fleming but it is a good article. The so-called "Texas Child Protective Services" attacks families of FLDS to protect them from what? I am happy this action has been condemned as illegal, but sorry it took so long.

Here is the same point I have been making for weeks...
Here is what the real issue is. State governments routinely promote teenage promiscuous sex in the sex education programs in government schools and in government-funded counseling centers... here we have a state agency seizing a large group of children on the grounds that teenage girls are having sex with a man they regard as their husband and to whom they have promised fidelity.

If you want to talk about weird, what is weirder than the counselors, child-savers, and feminist prosecutors who want to rescue young women from polygamy only to turn them into unpaid strumpets. Today’s Chicago Tribune features an article titled “To many girls, sex with adults just part of life,”... our entire culture, from top to bottom, is saturated with images of sexuality and promiscuity...

Let us cut the hypocrisy. America, as a society, is dedicated to the sexual exploitation of women. The only “crime ” committed by the Fundamentalist Mormons is their commitment to marriage.
