It's a great thing that this film and others like it have been made; these folks ought to be put in front of cameras and shown to the public at large, if for no better reason than to demonstrate the silliness of religion.

That said, the text introducing these videos: "Stories that started a revolution" is BS. The guy just took Krakauer's book and went and re-interviewed the same people that Krakauer did. Phony.

check your facts kiwi...we were doing these stories before Krakauer could find Colorado City on a map

Starting at 1:20 is that a child bride screaming in the back ground while she is being raped?

Who wants to get a mass protest against these folks going?

Or call the FBI daily on reporting sexual abuse.

To Ruth, you said that you want more for your daughter, than to have a baby at 16, and to be able to make something of herself. That all you have is a 6th grade education. You have done something incredible with your life...you got out. And that one day will be recognized by your daughter, for the chance you have given her.

the interviewer sounds like he should be interviewing porn.

[cruzere120]

What's going on there is just child molestation , and for the state of AZ to allow them Welfare is just a bad joke

Ironically Wynn and Nicole were so in love they left his first wife and 10 children and went to liven in Canada with Winston Blackmore. So much for rape and force. I think they're even still married.

What beautiful scenery to serve as a backdrop for such a tragedy.
