And I have made the point that it is only in Southern Utah that they really have to use public assistance. Everywhere else they go they are completely self-reliant, big families and all.

Fiannan is another story. You and I (I believe) are on the same page as to where we stand with his theories and beliefs.

I'm not disagreeing with a lot you have said. I also didn't agree with all the children in Texas being taken away based on a phone call.

If we were all in agreement with the article in the OP, the conversation should have probably ended there.

I do believe the article stated that as well.

Which is why I don't understand this blanket accusation of irresponsibility and having to "rely of welfare" towards FLDS parents.

Like I said. When everyone was in agreement at the beginning the thread should have ended then. We didn't need all the accusations flying both directions.

Make peace, not war. You should print out post #65 and hang it on your wall.

I'm going to close this thread as I think both sides have had their say. Since it was decided we agreed at the beginning...enough said.
