Kid Fashions Have a Cult Following

76. The stuff is incredibly expensive - and all either polyester or poly/cotton blend. Yuck!

77. While I'm very tolerant to an individuals right to practice religious belief and will defend their right for the pursuit of happiness, I will not tolerate one single act of sexual abuse on a child and that means a girl or boy under the age of legal consent as defined by state criminal law.

These cults are very complex business ventures. They use "religion" as a facade when underneath they are cleverly concealed venues to abscond with taxpayer's money to set up money laundering outfits. The complexity is mind boggling. They are the worst of sinners, imo.

78. Ok, I homeschool my kids and I am in no way a freakish polygamist. That was a bit insulting.

80. Chicken Stripper,
1.I said that I'm sure there was and is abuse as is the case in every organization religious or secular
2.I don't agree with manipulating and exploiting the welfare system and tax resources to pay for their lifestyle
3.I never take any heed or creadence to anything that anyone says or wrires who has left or been put out of any organization!
4.We as a culture stand alone against the world in our bizare and freekish views of sex and morality including our prudish vic torian/puritanical notions that lead us to believe we can impose ourselves and beliefs on others.
Most cultures in the worls have no such things as "age of consent/stautory rape' laws or if they do they are a complete different concept that are applied in such a way that protect the Human Right of the young person to make decisions regarding their own lives and bodies and protect their right to privacy.
Where prepubescent CHILDREN are involved? It's a no-brainer since they are not equipped ether way and it's not an option for them. Abuse clear and simple. A UNIVERSAL UNDERSTANDING THE WORLD OVER. A young Adult person is another matter. Our culture cannot seperate the two. We see all young people as children and treat them that way and they therefore often act that way in our culture.

85. Who gave them back the children, should be put to jail! Poor children growing up and being brainwashed here in the USA!!!

Oh, yeahhhh........Everthing is so goood outside of the "cult". The kids would be better off learning about condoms, popping Ritalin and looking at reality tv everynight. I;m no religious freak, but please don't act like life here on the outside is any saner with the murders, child molestations, and crapola going on.

87. Nightline on ABC had a story on the cult and a couple of the unibrow grannies was baking some seriously delicious looking bread. Won't buy the clothes but I might buy a cookbook.

88. Just because you may have been homeschooled or choose to homeschool your children and believe in God DOES NOT make you a freak. Im not a mormon and I personally do not find these clothes to be anything I would want my kids to wear...BUT is TMZ making fun of them because there will be 0 chance of seeing someone's britney? I mean they are conservative .. SO WHAT? DOes everything someone wears have to show boobs or butts? Whatever happened to leaving something to the imagination????
BTW TMZ pleaase get some class and quit lumping people in the same category - oh and lay off the Jesus Jokes ok?

89. 75. They quoted this on their website "and they did not wear costly apparel, yet they were neat and comely. Alma 1:27 " . But when you check out their affordable clothing they are charging more than the Gap and Gymboree. They charge $65.93 for overalls and $31.81 for jeans for a baby!!! I'm sorry, Wal-Mart sells more affordable clothing and if you wanted to get more affordable you could go to goodwill and get the same look they are going for.

The Gap And Wal-Mart manufactur there clothing in massive quantities in the Third World. And Yes they do exploit child labor in those countries to make the clothes. Your cheap onesy was probably sewn by a 12 year old underweight child working 60+ hours a week for pennies to survive. But thats much better for you, you don't have to see them. So keep buying your cheap imported clothes. And support the exploitation. By the Way I used to work overseas for garment companies who sold to both Wal-Mart and the gap as well as every other major retailer and I have seen this crap with my own eyes. It took me a few years to get fed up with it and go to work for a 100% American made company. If Americans had any sense whatso ever they would support American companies 100% even if it meant paying more and buying less.
