“More than half the teen girls taken from a polygamist compound in west Texas have children or are pregnant, state officials said Monday.”
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080428/ap_on_re_us/polygamist_retreat_6 From the article: “Church officials have denied that any children were abused at the ranch and say the state's actions are a form of religious persecution.” I guess that depends on how you define abuse. From their definition, a pregnancy resulting from a “spiritual marriage” between an older man and a teenage girl is not abuse, it “brings glorification in heaven.”
