Comments about ‘Leaders of polygamists are arrested in Canada’

Let's hope the Canadian Mounties handle this better than the Texas Rangers did. It's a good omen that they have not started with the children. If the men are away the children are safe.

I would like to say Thanks to Deseret News Ben Winslow for staying on top of this topic!!! Seems the this newspaper is the only one in Utah which reports immediately!!!
As far as these two men being arrested,, GOOD!!!!
Polygamy is against the law in Canada! Its time this kind of degrading lifestyle be stopped!

So Winston,

Swingers are allowed, but you cant chase little girls, is that your issue?

Sounds like a personal problem to me.

They would know about polygamy Amy, they are the church-run paper ;)

Thanks Ben for the quick report!

This news should serve as the (25th) wake up call for fundies that their world aint what it used to be, times they are a changing.

Welcome to the 21st Century!

THIS IS A CANADA PRESENT/GIFT FOR THE INAUGURATION OF U.S. PRESIDENT ELECT OBAMA.

VIDEO OR ARTICLE OR DOCUMENTARY QUOTE: Polygamy is becoming more accepted ......by the main stream "...Let's Bring this ship back..." said the "college-age-girls" or TV Talk show hostesses.

What wonderful news! This makes my day!

Once this case heads to the courts and is found to be in contravention to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms--the same charter that has legalized same sex unions and other forms of cohabitation--will you still be praising the Mounties? Nah. You will be cursing them and accusing them of being conspirators in depriving women and children their equal rights.

Laurie, you are a unidimensional, sick, demented, bigoted puppy. Find a new cause to support--go hug some trees. Go shake some of that LeBaron dust off and see if you can stop judging the world based upon your cult-reflex driven abuses instead. Not all polygamists went through the hell you did, and unlike you, MOST of them are NORMAL people.

Not saying anything about Gaza, not saying anything about YFZ, betcha he doesnt say anything about this either.

But its gonna end up being an issue for him. Cant be on that honeymoon forever!

BE AWARE OF ABSURD FALLACIES AHEAD: ..."The Utah-based pro-polygamy group Principle Voices... to supporters, Principle Voices director Mary Batchelor said it was "to test the Canadian laws against polygamy."

TEMPTING OR TESTING THE [ULTRA-SECULAR] GOVERMENT WITH [NON-SECULAR] FALLACIES AS DEFENSE OF POLYGAMY?

SOYOUWANNA BE A HUMAN GUINEA PIG FOR POLYGAMY?

(TO TEST THE LAW?)

ANALOGY (PARALLEL-STRUCTURE LOGIC) AS PROOF OF ABSURDITY AND CONCLUSION:

TEMPTING THE LAW, ULTRA-SECULAR GOVERMENTS WITH "NON-SECULAR DEFENSE OF POLYGAMY."

VERSUS

TEMPTING LAWS OF NATURE OR AUTHORITY

VERSUS

TEMPTING GOD THE ALMIGHTY OR (AUTHORITY) WITH THREE MAJOR TEMPTATIONS: (JUMP FROM PINNACLE, TRANSFORM ROCKS TO BREAD, WORSHIP SATAN IN EXCHANGE FOR THE ALL OF WEALTH AND POWER OF THE WORLD? )

I wonder how many people making the claim that polygamy is evil and unnatural are the same people who did not support Prop 8.

Setting aside marrying under the age and arranged marriages, there is much strong science supporting people having a polygamous nature than a homosexual nature. It's kind of proven unfortunately with all the extra marital affairs happening.

So I hope all those out there who did not support Prop 8, picket for, defend, and stand up for to the rights of the FLDS church and all people in general to be married to more than one husband or one wife.

Polygamy is not that bad if you think about it.

Polygamy is evil, and you polygamist men on this blog need to get a life and stop thinking all women were made just for your purpose to abuse. Your minds are all twisted and warped, and probably beyond repair. You men need serious help! It's disgusting that you think U can use God for your SICK abuse of women...SHAME ON ALL OF YOU! Your place is with the devil. I believe it is Satan that you try to confuse with a loving God.

What the heck are you trying to say? I'm sure it makes sense to you, but it's incomprehensible to any of us!

Now breathe deeply there Mary; your venting is complete; take a handful of antidepressants and go back to your normal life watching the soaps.

PLEASSSSSSSSSSSSS STICK TO THE SUBJECT OF THE ARTICLE.

Polygamous men being arrested in Canada has absolutly nothing to do with Barack Obama being sworn in as President of United States nor does it have anything to do with Prop 8.

There are some really silly comments on here some of the time, thank goodness for freedom of speech but at least stay on the subject.

Polygamy right or wrong let the Canadian Courts decide, we need not be so judgemental. I do not support Polygamy but I do support the law of the land regardless of the country.

If the governments allow poloygamy only the religous righteous would actually do it as it is an institution of creating Lots of babies. This would very quickly enlarge the poplulation to be overwhelmingly a God fearing moral and free society. In 4 or 5 generations they could take back thier freedoms and deter the New World Order;)
