in a polygamist situation the men rule the roost. i agree with you dcarr.we dont know all the facts. my opinion is drawn from what the media has put out,but what ive seen and read its the church elders who make these decisions and the elders are almost entiely made up of men.but to me it doesnt matter men or women, hang them if they are responcible for doing that to a child.but go only after the guiltyseems like they are making a clean sweep of the church.they dont want another waco on their hands.i dont blame them for that but taking 400 kids away from their families isnt the way to do it.
