Watching 19th Wife

[louiex]

Trying so hard not to stab at my eyes :O

Seriously, my brain hurts trying to fathom that this misogynistic, child abusing religion actually exists. While I do believe in the freedom to believe what you want to believe, I'm just going to sit here in this corner here gnashing my teeth.

Just.. yeah. Wow.

Yay for abusing people in the name of God because, after all, that is what faith is all about, right? / sarcasm.

I understand that's why this is being shown on Lifetime, seeing as that's the 'lady network' but truly this is mind-boggling. Women are property, bartered and traded, and weeded out when they no longer can bear children. Meanwhile, young sons are sent off as 'Lost Boys' who are supposed sinners but truly they're just competition for the older men who want the younger wives.

CRAZY :O

Though I do like your peanuts icon~

That is not religion its sexual slavery.

RIIIIIGHT?

I, personally, find it so hard to really believe that people can just be so blind and so railroaded. I just don't understand it :O

*hugs you and your sane, wonderful self*

*shakes them* Sadly there are people who would rather follow anything they are told and let themselves be subjugated than do the work of thinking for themselves.

*hugs you for caring*
