Most Wanted.. *by ivan*
Ok I was either bored or wanted some non-fiction action news.
So I logged on to wikipedia to get my daily dose of action from around the world. This time I decided to look into who made it to the top 10 on the FBI Most Wanted List.
As I was happily reading away I came across 'Warren Steed Jeffs'.
My goodness!
(feel free to do your own search on this wonderful man!) but if you are lazy to copy paste that name into wikipedia or google.. here is a brief summary (since you are not doing your own research, I aint helping either, so there! :P)
He is a church leader where .. ok read this extract….
"Upon his father's death on September 8, 2002, Warren appointed himself the new leader of the church. One of his first statements after his father's death was directed at high ranking officials in the church: "I won't say much, but I will say this—hands off my father's wives." Then addressing the recent widows, he said, "You women will live as if father is still alive and in the next room." Within a week, Warren had married all but two of his father's several dozen wives (effectively making himself his own step-father)."
No..he is not wanted for that.. he is wanted for sexual assault on a minor and conspiracy to commit sexual conduct with a minor for arranging the marriage between a 16-year-old girl and a 28 year old man who was already married.
Oh and in his church he can also ‘reassign’ your wife and children to another man! (???OO???)
After reading that, I just had the compelling urge to throw stones at our dear Warren for some reason. However I quickly also realised that getting that action fulfilled will be hard due to the following reasons:
One - There are no stones nearby where I sit or it will reflect badly on me to be throwing stones at my computer screen, and
Two - Packing stones and Fed-Ex'ing them to Warren to self-stone himself is also not a good idea..i mean.. what if the stones got lost in transit.. (no insult to Fed Ex, I am sure they don’t lose stuff!)
Anyhoo.. I just cant fathom the fact that people follow leaders like Warren these days. I know these followers must be educated enough and that their educated mind might be yelling at them some point in time. But do they listen?? HELL NO!! And the women buy into these kinda preaching these days and time?? I am all for woman rights and equality, but come on ladies! If a man says he believes in marrying more than one woman, think hard, think twice, heck think 15 times more and then smack his teeth out and then politely say no.
Geez, is there hope for humanity? And we are sending probes to Neptune??? And lets not get started on the Heaven's Gate ppl!!
There will be more people like Warren I am sure. And if you come across another Warren in your state or town, come back here. Coz I will be setting up a website to sell stones! And if you think that’s too much of an hassle buying stones online and getting them couriered to where u are, then I will be also providing an e-stone service, (its like an e-card, only that it contains nothing nice) so that you can email them and let them know of your intentions!
There..said my piece..
No further non-fiction for me for a while now thanks..
hmmm..however must find out how to put up a website..

A religion is all about faith. If its not a religion, then its purely for "benefits" purposes in the name of a religion. In this case, That warren guy, simply came up with a "church" and in the name of the god, advise people of funny polygamy. If you are his followers, where polygamy didnt matter and is infact encouraged..I think many would love it. Just like how i would want to join a religion which provide me money everytime i visit church. Cult or no cult, god or no god..benefits comes first.
Scattered thoughts and reply. Pardon me if im out of point..hahaa
I wouldn't mind polygamy - but only if it works both ways... u man marry many - me woman marry many.
I dont think there is a church that gives money.. it only takes..
I think it goes against certain cardinal rule or something if it gives.. lol..
