Who’s going to step up and defend a cult that practices polygamy? Who is going to argue that children should be raised in such an environment? We must confess that we cannot find it in ourselves to defend either point.

But we must confess that it seems to us that Vox Day has a point when he argues that raid on the compound of a Mormon sect was hypocritical and immoral. His comparison of instances of underage pregnancy within the sect to rate of population at large in Texas is particularly damming. But we must imagine that he could have strengthened his argument even more if he had laid his hands on statistics showing how children in the tender embrace of child protection agencies turn out.
