A statement from God....re: Warren Jeffs

[Saphire]

A polygamist sect leader defending himself against sexual assault charges.



--Jeffs then said he had no choice but to read a statement from God. Walther dismissed the jury and allowed him to read it.

"I, the Lord God of heaven," Jeffs read, "call upon the court to cease this open prosecution against my pure, holy way."

If the trial continues, the statement said, "I will send a scourge upon the counties of prosecutorial zeal to make humbled by sickness and death."

2. Please. Everybody knows when God has a statement to make a hand appears and writes it on the wall.

How stupid does Jeffs think we are?

3. Jeffs announced that God WROTE it and delivered it to him, not just inspired it.

BTW, I could care less that they're polygamists. Not sure why the media keeps harping on that subject (and is shocked, shocked that celebrities have kids out of wedlock with their 20-year mistresses and expects us to be angry about that too). It's the abuse of women in the sect that pisses me off. But these people are a real insular cult of personality so it's not surprising.
