Polygamist use the name of god to commit pedaphilia. Its really rediculous that the state cannot DNA test all these men, find out who their children are, and prosecute them for their crimes!

Taken at its face value, polygamy on its own is a cultural phenomenon, neither positive nor negative given the context in which it occurs. However, when it involves forcing young women into marriages, especially at an age when they are becoming interested in boys of their own age group, is simply wrong. I cannot get the picture of Jeffs and his child wife out of my mind. It is nauseating. Another idiocy brought to the world by religion.

Amazing how many people hear the words "child abuse", "rape" or "pedophilia" and logical thought, skepticism, and presumption of innocence goes right out the window. Being accused of a crime must mean you did it - the government is never wrong, never bungles things, never lies. Reading both sides of the story goes a long way, people.

All but 5 of these women have been proven to be over the age of 18 why does the AP report such a story without going after the facts

LOL! 99% of those girls were OVER the age of 18! One of them was 37 YEARS OLD! Texas got egg on their face big time on this one.

i had no idea that so many of them were that young. i don't think they're "forced" per say, i do however think that they're a little brainwashed into it.
