Pointing to the fact that, "they're bringing spirits into the world" as evidence of their goodness is fallacy. It does no good to bring spirits into the world if you can't care for them. And by the lopsided statistics on their welfare consumption, it's clear that they can't care for their children. Rant and rave about persecution all you want. When they formed their Church, they had the warning that continuing the practice of polygamy would bring the downfall of the Church. So it will be with their religion.
You have completely ignored the supportive articles about this group, haven't you? Are you so completely blinded by prejudice that you fail to see *any* good?
