Not quite as bad as this

Pretty extreme FLDS cultic abuse.  I don't think things were quite this bad in TWI.  What is it with some men?  How can they (a) convince themselves that this is okay; and (b) convince others that this is okay.

27 minutes ago, Rocky said:
Warren Jeffs, the leader of the polygamist sect Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, was convicted in 2011 for the sexual assault of underage girls.

Who Is Warren Jeffs?

"Golden child" is a way of saying he was groomed to be a narcissist.  If he had a sibling they'd be the scapegoat

Yes, I encountered this document earlier today; it was linked to something more recent.

But what kind of perversion is this? 

Lyle Jeffs’ estranged wife Charlene Jeffs describes a group of followers called “seed bearers.” “A seed bearer is an elect man of a worthy bloodline chosen by the Priesthood to impregnate the FLDS woman,” according to Charlene Jeffs’ petition. Under a new doctrine, “FLDS men are no longer permitted to have children with their multiple wives. That privilege belongs to the seed bearer alone,” the petition said. “It is the husband’s responsibility to hold the hands of their wives while the seed bearer ‘spreads his seed.’ In layman terms, the husband is required to sit in the room while the chosen seed bearer, or a couple of them, rape his wife or wives,” according to the document.

It sounds like something out of "The Handmaid's Tale," with a bit of a twist.  What kind of man lets, watches and abets his wife being raped by another man?    

And not only that, but:

Warren Jeffs has withheld any relationships between husbands and wives, Brower said. Any touching between spouses outside rituals like these, even a simple handshake, can now be considered adultery in the church.

Unbelievable.  Unless one has also been in a cult.
