Full story: Arizona Republic

HILDALE, Utah - Members of the Jessop family were gathered in the living room of their sprawling three-story home for Sunday prayers - and I was tucked into a corner with my cameras and notepad.

Wow, didn't you draw a pretty picture! Why did you close your eyes to the child abuse?

You know, it wouldn't bother me so much if 14 year old girls were marrying boys near their age...but they are forced to marry old men. I am so glad to see that Warren Jffries is in prison: let's get the rest of those old farts!

Hi everyone just wanted to say hi, and let all of you know one of my best friends for years was a resident of colorado city and I even went with her to visit her family one summer. She ran away as a young girl due to an arranged marrige that she was terrified of. It is the most awful thing i could ever think of having to go throug as a young girl. Have any of you read Escape by Carolyn Jessop?

Two children should be limit, says green guru

Sarah-Kate
Times Online
February 1, 2009

Couples who have more than two children are being “irresponsible” by creating an unbearable burden on the environment, the government’s green adviser has warned.

* A d v e r t i s e m e n t
* efoods

Jonathon Porritt, who chairs the government’s Sustainable Development Commission, says curbing population growth through contraception and abortion must be at the heart of policies to fight global warming. He says political leaders and green campaigners should stop dodging the issue of environmental harm caused by an expanding population.

A report by the commission, to be published next month, will say that governments must reduce population growth through better family planning.

“I am unapologetic about asking people to connect up their own responsibility for their total environmental footprint and how they decide to procreate and how many children they think are appropriate,” Porritt said.

“I think we will work our way towards a position that says that having more than two children is irresponsible. It is the ghost at the table. We have all these big issues that everybody is looking at and then you don’t really hear anyone say the “p” word.”

The Optimum Population Trust, a campaign group of which Porritt is a patron, says each baby born in Britain will, during his or her lifetime, burn carbon roughly equivalent to 2½ acres of old-growth oak woodland - an area the size of Trafalgar Square.

The 14 year old girl married a 19 year old man. That's close in age if you ask me.

There is NOT one 14 year old girl in the USA old enough to marry anyone.

Why aren't the women allowed to wear red? Proverbs states that is part of being a "good" woman.
/
She is not afraid for her household when it snows,
for all her household are clothed in crimson.
22She makes herself coverings;
her clothing is fine linen and purple
/
More proof the FLDS do not believe the bible, and are following a FALSE profit.

It's child abuse when FLDS old farts chase young men away in order to marry 14-15, even 16 year old girls...the girl, 14, who married a boy, 19 doesn't worry me so much. Speaking for myself, I was not ready, nor in the mood at age 14. Geezzzzz!

You aren't alone, NO 14 year old girl is ready to be married.
Crazy for anyone to even think they would be.
A normal 14 year old would now be in the 8th grade, for crips sake.

Daily Horoscope for December 24

Aquarius

Keep calm and all will be well. You're feeling slightly fraught because there are so many demands on your time, and it won't help if you're trying to juggle some last-minute chores with some fun-filled social events. Get others to lend you a hand, or tell yourself that perfection is not an option right now and that you'll have to scale down your preparations accordingly.
