A chilling indictment of contemporary Mormon and Christian fundamentalist polygamy, God's Brothel reveals gruesome facts about Bible-based polygamy through the brave voices of 18 women who escaped from 10 of the 11 main religious groups as well as independent families. Their stories include rape, incest, orgies, and violence, making this form of polygamy more akin to sexual slavery than to any quaint religious or lifestyle choice.
Editorial : "'Not a single woman I've ever known is happy,' one polygamous wife says. Reading 'God's Brothel,' you'll understand why." -- Denver Post, August 15, 2004
" a stinging indictment of the hidden practice of polygamy, in which patriarchy reaches an almost unfathomable extreme." -- Patricia Ireland, former president of the NOW
"As God's Brothel makes clear, fundamentalist Mormon polygamy can lead to pedophilia, rape, domestic violence incest and welfare fraud." -- Editorial, Salt Lake Tribune, August 15, 2004
"Reading these stories I felt like a curious spectator to a gruesome accident." -- Fred Silverstein, former producer, CNN, CNBC
"An illuminating new book" -- CNN, August 1, 2004
I was very pleased with the book - it was as expected. I like the way this book is laid out. They all looked very interesting. In Ireland, Irish music wasn't considered to be "hip" and broadcasts were limited to relatively unimaginative ceili music. This book clearly offers tools, models, and best practices. Great explanations as only an A & M prof. Imagine a sausage with long floppy ears, four legs, and a tail. The problem sets are beneficial.
The biggest reason why I like this book is that it reinforces the concepts from the LG Bible. It's a shame that such a valuable teaching tool is being kept out teacher's hands because we cannot afford it.. The statistical comprehension of Market Profile is skillfully explained and is profitable to those who adopt it. But for complete rebuilds or overhauls, forget it.
They're ok for what they are, but what they are simply isn't what they use to be. Judge for yourself!. There are more chapters that are just as relevant and he
