So, after much fasting and medidation the truth comes out. I'm glad he had the courage to admit he is a fraud!

so what happens now to all of his followers who have been following him all these years? I wonder what they are thinking, here they have been following the so called Prophet, but to only find out that he really hasn't been a prophet since he was 20.

Being a polygamist is not what makes him mental...being a rapist and an abuser is. Not all polygmaists acts has this monster has chosen to act. This is what I don't get. Choice to hurt those who you have stewardship over is just that, a choice. Some leaders choose to be kind and protective. This monster did not choose that. But being a polygamist doesn't make him or any other rapist do what they do.

This "lifestyle" causes it (maybe not in everyone), but in far too many. Let's face it. There may be some good people in polygamy, but polygamy itself is NOT GOOD.

Command & control people will always find people to command & control. You find that everywhere. If you only found it in polygamy I would say ok it is polygamy, but it is not.
BTW: Who appointed Roger Hoole to be judge, jury and meddler over the FLDS?

I was married to one wife, how could I ever handle 30?, It's sad to see in this nation freedom of relegion for anyone to question one's personal beliefs. I may disagree with the FLDS in regards to plural marriage as I was run out of Colorado City, AZ looking for a second wife! I kind of feel at times we are living back in 1830 again during the days of Joesph Smith! Let the Lord be the Judge of Mr. Jeff's and let the laws of this nation never fail us as citizens!

Just me - When they marry their own step daughters (very common) the mother in law is also their wife.

San Diego, A religion who teaches young girls that they must sleep with married men is not a religion it is a crime. These men have multiple sexual partners - calling it marriage doesn't change it. It is no different than teaching children that they must be prostitutes to go to heaven. Religious freedom stops when it becomes abuse. Secondly it requires an unnatural ratio of men to women-which means boys have to be gotten rid of or denied having a wife of their own so their leave. Thirdly, there is a huge amount of incestuous relationships, cousin, neice etc because where are they going to get their victims oops I mean "wives". Sure alot of women claim that they love having their husband sleep with their sister, cousin, daughter or whoever the other wife might be - funny though every woman I met who has left and men for that matter suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome.

No. Utah sees a major earthquake every 350 years. Last one? 350 years ago.
