Aah. The latest on Mormon fundamentalists:

The lost boys, thrown out of US sect so that older men can marry more wives

It's been a while since I reminded y'all to go out and read Under the Banner of Heaven, all about these wing-nuts. Do so. Be reminded that my problem has less to do with polygamy than with their idea of "consent". Maybe I spent too much time working in medicine & obsess about informed consent, but I think it's important.

Ah, my goddaughter's family are having their own personal religious wars. One uncle and his wife are Southern Baptists, and an aunt and her husband are Catholic (the aunt's a new convert). Luckily my friend, my goddaughter's mum, was raised British anglican and is therefore as close to atheism as makes no difference.

Some gamesradar users had a look at that site. Apparently feminism's aim is to turn women into lesbians. Given what a tiny percentage of the population are lesbian, you have to conclude that feminism failed and the fundies are getting their knickers in a twist over nothing...
