@alltimelow888 Polygamy is disgusting. Some people like to compare it to gay rights or the oppression blacks faced but it's completely different. Polygamy is the controlling of a gropu of people by one person who controls how they think what they do how they speak how they dress where they go what they do. Whats more it's creating a status system that believes women are things to be awarded to old men and have children at 14 years of age. Some are trying to normalize it, not going to work.

Saying how corrupt the mormon religion is and then saying you are a catholic, irony at its best.

Amazing to me the Mainstream Mormon church is so against gay rights but they choose to follow the faith wose creator was a pedophile. Book of Mormon has been proven false. God was not a polygamist like MAINSTREAM MORMONS believe. The Cultish FLDS we see today is the fallout from the revelating Gods word' doctrine of Joseph Smith. god doesn;t ask a pedophile to speak for Him. Joseph Smith revealed NOTHING. LDS 'priesthood' is nothing. Their 'keys' are nothing. Gods daughters are equal to sons.
