How far inside will they look? Also, I wonder if LDS Inc is involved and will demand the show affirm the FLDS have no connection to LDS..

It was good and it set to rest the charge that the abuses are merely allegations.

I checked earlier tonight and there are about 3-4 clips and several stories from this broadcast on the 48 hours site.

Watched it in bits and pieces... Little new: Living in, and getting out, of unrighteous-dominion, as one becomes aware of the negative effects of remaining "in". While the degrees vary, the principles remain the same whether in FLDSism. LDSism or other Fundyisms that dictate edicted obedience to authoritarianism.

Most here, i think, experience(d) that in Mormonism, which is now under a microscope... Thank "God" :-) Warm regards, Roger

I can't view the link from the computer I'm on, but did the program touch at all on Smith's revelations on plural marriage or his practice of it?
