FLDS Crimes Against the State

Apr 30, 2008 08:09

Homeschoolers may rejoice that their case is going to court, but their joy will be short lived once the full repercussions of the Eldorado raid permeate the entire bureaucracy of every state.

The first sin of Texas was using an assault force to form a perimeter around a church kibbutz without probable cause. Let's ignore Texas' bill of attainder and ex-post facto.

A semi-literate Obama delegate from Colorado Springs was put up to making a phony call to a hot line in San Angelo about a kibbutz in Eldorado, by some large Colorado Springs anti-polygamy ministries! The fictitious person, of course, could not be produced and a wicked judge gave them a second warrant to search for "evidence of other crimes." Ignore that the constitution requires those crimes and places to be specified also.

What were the "other crimes?" "The "evidence" consists of the community itself and its religious teachings, which dictate that girls look upon marriage and child-bearing as the highest calling of their existence!" Something that is common "teaching" in most evangelical churches, who also were highly supportive of the raid.

The women initially had no intention of surrendering their children--the wisdom of which became evident once they and their children were arrested--but the men refused to fight, and ordered their wives to surrender.

The sins of the state ought to terrify the homeschoolers: The second sin is what is called, the "Cultural Competency" evaluation used by CPS. The test essentially measures how corrupt your children have become by being exposed to today's "culture." Specifically, they do not care about your 13 year old daughter being impregnated by her 13 year old boyfriend, but whether they have become distrustful of the state, have exclusive religious beliefs, reject the prevailing "culture" and hold themselves separate from their licentious peers. On the basis of that test, they can be removed from their parents forever.

A third sin of the state was their judgment of the homeschoolers themselves, insisting that more regulation and oversight is required to prevent another kibbutz from developing a separate lifestyle.

And finally, when the women realized their predicament was hopeless, they were forbidden to invoke imprecatory prayer by the state. All prayers were supervised, meaning approved by the state.

The lives of the FLDS women were far more commendable than Evangelical Free churches for example, where their main concern is abortion and whose lives are indistinct from society. The FLDS women dressed "second coming", homeschooled their children, taught their children the faith, prayed and sang hymns twice a day, did not feed their family GM food, and were capable of independent thought from an early age. Let's see a Community Church do all of that.

The sin of the evangelicals and Catholics in this matter is biblical and political, whereas the sin of the FLDS is not biblical but denominational and political. They were too independent for the state to permit them to raise another generation of potential rebels against the tyranny of the state. But in so doing, their only hope now is to completely assimilate them and corrupt them, because the boys will remember and wait.

May it not be as long that just as "Solomon tried to kill Jeroboam, but Jeroboam fled to Egypt... they sent for Jeroboam, and he and the whole assembly of Israel went to Rehoboam..."
