In the beginning Jim Jones tried to emulate Father Divine and his Peace Mission movement. As most cults go Father Divine never saw outsiders as a threat. In fact in Philadelphia he had the Divine Lorraine Hotel where believers and non-believers alike could get a cheap room and a very cheap lunch. Many a college student in the 1950s and 1960s availed themselves of those cheap lunches. Father Divine is seen by some students of the Civil Rights movement as a promoter of Civil Rights. You two might find this interesting.

The poor folks who died in Jonestown were from all over the US. I was working in NJ and we had the survivors of one victim come into our office. Sadly, Jones Judeo-Christianity then evolved into a radical Marxism where the ends will always justify the means.

Christine was the only wife to only have a sealing. Meri, as the first wife, had a proper celebration. Janelle’s sealing to Kody was her second “marriage.” Robyn was married monogamously previously too. My heart has always gone out to Christine, knowing how many rights of passage she’s missed out on due to polygamy, so seeing her so happy and cherished nowadays is awesome and heartwarming.

I wish all polygamist were equal in the eye of law. Take Kody for example.with Christine, Jenelle, and Meri leaving him, they all deserve equal division of property and assets. Kody and his legal wife shouldn’t legally own all assets.

Just listened to today's You Tube on "Polygamy What Love is This 17.29 - 28Aug2025". They reviewed the changing policies across the years in the LDS church concerning temple sealings and unsealing of marriages. Very interesting!

With all the talking on this channel I haven't heard anyone talk about personality disorders (the dark triad) narcissistic/psychopath /sociopath/these kinda brains are what starts cults/thats why these extreme religious cults have so much in common /there is often a genetic component so the genes for this can be passed down/the frontal cortex (grey matter )is to thin where empathy and self reflection is in the brain/they are all about manipulation /control/abuse/they case book seek positions of authority over others and use religion to get away with all their brain washing /and living out insane fantasies !

This is all so creepy!!! A few years ago, I started digging into LDS history. The more I learned about Joseoh Smith, the more I felt this guy twisted Christianity to fit his current sins (seemed like a sex pervert, to me) to make them acceptable. He did NOT restore any church, he totally corrupted the Christianity of the Bible. (Never Morman here.)

This group lends some understanding to why Kody Brown uses some Jewish things within his AUB brand if religion. I was following this guy until the lunch when he pulled out a kippah. That is most certainly a Jewish head covering down to the terminology. I was waiting for him to speak in Hebrew. Lol

I've been watching her story off and on in small bits because it's hard to take it all at once. But my question is, and I've not heard it asked, but did she and the other 'wives' know polygamy is illegal in the United States?

I have a lot of thoughts here. 1. Being told where I have to go to church seems crazy to me. Each person has a different way of delivering their message, different personality, different vibes, etc. You should feel comfortable at church. 2. Normally I think you guys do a really awesome job of not being judgmental and pretty impartial. This video I kinda felt like you were pretty defensive towards your Mormon faith, even though you’re not LDS anymore. 3. Most churches do provide information on at least a quarterly basis on their financials. 4. As someone who used to underwrite commercial insurance for churches, in a majority of states church leaders are mandatory reporters. I don’t know Utah and Arizona law specifically, but most states require this. A mandatory reporter is someone who if they suspect abuse or receive an allegation of abuse they must report to the police, even if it’s a false allegation, or they can face criminal charges as well. It’s fine to have an internal policy of reporting up the chain as well, but law enforcement needs to be involved.

The followers of William Branham are very similar to the Jones and Jeffs cults. Although Branham is dead there exist factions of his followers that believe Branham's words above the very Bible the promote as the basis of their faith. Some teach that he coming back to kill a bear, others believe that he was/is the second coming of Christ, while others believe that if you don't follow the prophet that you will go to hell, and they all believe that his words were God's word. Churches have separated marriages, un-fellowshipped believers because they married another race, command that believers have no fellowship with "the world", they inhabit the private family's lives, and I'm sure they do a lot of other weird shit. I almost got sucked into this religion, but somehow I turned away from it.

I think polygamy could only work if it is friendship, but not actual love. If one's heart is not fully invested, one might be able to do it without jealousy, but not the marriage I would want.

Thanks for being more candid in your feelings and expression in regard to polygamy. It comes across more balanced and obviously you both have critical thinking skills. IMO, there is just too much room for abuse within this religion (as was clearly seen by Warren Jeff's abuses)

It’s interesting that he’s so smug about the mainstream church’s position, saying that not only is there no proof, there actually contradictory evidence. The exact same thing is true about the transfiguration of Brigham Young. It takes a real leap of faith to believe that happened too and yet the mainstream church believes that. Then there’s the multiple first vision accounts, Kinderhook plates, the Book of Abraham, DNA evidence, etc etc.

I see brainwashed girls (usually) who've been led to believe all their lives that they are nothing but chattel, maid service and baby makers for men who have no view of them other than for those uses - and that's their place because of gawd. It's frankly sad. It also speaks loudly for why sex education is so very important. Wanting other women (and sadly girls in a lot of cases) to take up the slack of dealing with these men is super telling. I suspect that most of these men are completely clueless when it comes to sex and that sex to them consists of a wham bam thank you ma'am type of being and attitude. They bring to mind those incels that can be found (unfortunately) all over the internet whining about how women don't want to date them. The more I've learned about this life the more less than it becomes. Such a sad existence for the ladies because they simply don't know better. Old Joseph was nothing but a creeper and his followers (men) wanted to be just like their hero. Ickers.
