From the recent Warren Jeffs sex ban proclamation:

PROCLAMATION

Proclamation of Son Ahman, Even Jesus Christ,
To All Peoples of the Earth, Even My Holy Will
To Warn All of My Judgment Upon All Peoples

Isn't it strange to see this guy using Joseph Smith's language for Jesus? It's like getting a window into early Mormon history. The corporate church has abandoned "Ahman." Now it's "The Savior."

He's got the "even" down right.

I hadn't heard the recent proclamation by Warren, so I looked it up.

Warren Jeffs, the convicted rapist leader of a fundamentalist Mormon cult, has banned sex until he gets out of prison.

I guess this solves the whole problem of the FLDS. They will go the way of the Shakers. No sex, no kiddies. No kiddies, no future members. They will UNbreed themselves into non-existence.

If he's not gettin' any, ain't no one gettin' any?

Holy hell...he banned toys and bicycles!

I wonder how long the faithful FLDS will go along with this? Didn't Warren proclaim the end of the world by last Saturday? I'm still here (at least I think I am).

He's burning his bridges pretty quickly.

The article says the sex ban was the last straw for many people and that families are fleeing the church. However, those who remain are more devoted than ever...meeting daily. EEK!

Well, duh. When a prophet asks you to do something that is obviously wrong, you are being tested. The correct answer is to overcome your conscience and obey; otherwise, you have failed the test. Or so I'm told.

We will soon observe the birth of many NOFMs: New Order FLDS Mormons

:D. I wonder who will lead this new group and will they last long? Will they call themselves the "Not so Fundamentalist Later day Saints (NSFLDS)?

Those "more devoted" aren't having any kids. Poof! They're gone.
