Gays and Polygamy

The beautiful majesty of ... spread your legs for Jesus 'at puberty'? C'mon!
If this were a gay or lesbian group, you just know we'd be hearing about castrating the perps and more.


The response to the bust-up of the polygamist group in Texas is amazing.

You just know that if it were a gay compound, everyone would be raining fire and brimstone on almost all those involved and testing and decrying everyone for "gay diseases". C'mon.
People feel little or no compunction about tearing kids from their gay parents, via the courts or even engaging in the most harsh language to refuse gays and lesbians the right to adopt - a situation that usually provides the most intensional set of parents possible, right, who have to meet minimum thresholds, even ... AND no abortion that I've ever heard about.

Now compare the very human response to the YFZ Ranch in El Dorado, Texas..

  • The "two judges involved in the case had asked that prayers be said for wisdom, guidance and direction."
  • The faith community is involved in prayer.
  • Some are sending [hand made?] quilts to the children.
  • The AP is publishing photos sympathetic to the men left behind, in emptied "homes".
  • News stories remark dryly that boys were brought up to perpetuate "the system"

You just know that if it were a gay compound, everyone would be raining fire and brimstone on almost all those involved and testing and decrying everyone for "gay diseases". C'mon. This is a group who appear to have built an entire life around spread your legs for Jesus.
