  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Plygs by Ed Kociela ISBN 13: 9781535456791
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} plygs by Ed Kociela ISBN 13: 9781535456791. This is the much-anticipated sequel to Ed Kociela's successful debut, "plygs," a fact-based novel about the people of a small, fundamentalist Mormon community and the self-proclaimed prophet who forced them to obey his twisted, demented teachings from engaging in welfare fraud to the horrors of child sexual abuse. This book completes the story of religion gone awry in the dusty barrenness of two small towns located along the state line between Utah and Arizona. It is the resolution of a story about a family torn apart by the demands of a demented prophet who controls every aspect of their lives by demanding they follow his word or face eternal damnation. Like the first book, ‘plygs2’ is also about love, lust, and greed and the heartbreaking loss of innocence that test the characters’ courage and will. “The first book was a primer on the lifestyle and beliefs of a group of fundamentalist Mormons," Kociela says. "This one pulls back the layers and exposes the vulnerabilities of a family forced to choose between its religious beliefs and belief in each other.” The book also deals with the fate of the fundamentalist prophet, wanted by authorities in three states for vicious sex crimes against children he took as brides. Kociela said he hopes the book will shed even more light on this very complex subject. “Some people shrug it off and say that consenting adults should be allowed to live whichever lifestyle they choose,” he said. “While I believe that is true, there is a subtext that often goes unrecognized in these fundamentalist groups.

    GORSUCH AND THE WEST | SPLITTING THE 9TH CIRCUIT | THE BEAUTY OF DARKNESS High Country ForN people whoews care about the West Change Comes to Short Creek The modern West encroaches on a fundamentalist Mormon empire By Sarah Scoles May 1, 2017 | $5 | Vol. 49 No. 7 | www.hcn.org 49 No. | $5 Vol. 2017 1, May CONTENTS Editor’s note Exploitation and the West High Country News is some- times called an “environmental” magazine, even by folks within our walls. As the editor, though, I humbly disagree. HCN is a magazine of the American West, helping the region tell its own story, of its people and places, through several important lenses. One of those lenses is the West’s fragile, beautiful environment. Another is closely related: its natural resources, from coal, oil and gas, to timber, ranching and recreation. But a third is through the region’s communities — communities shaped by history and heritage, for better or worse. In this issue, we explore one such community — the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- day Saints. The FLDS, dwindling in membership and with several of its leaders in jail or on the lam, consti- tutes a small corner of the modern West, but it rep- resents an important aspect of the past. The sect is famous for its polygamy, an aspect of Utah life that A girl — who sticks out her tongue when she spots a photographer — rides with others wearing traditional is so important that the Salt Lake Tribune has a re- FLDS prairie dresses in Hildale, Utah.

This was understandable, given the circumstances. Jeffs, the prophet ofthe Fundamen- . talist Church ofJesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (FLDS), had discharged his court-appointed attorney in January, hired a FortWorthhotshot named Jeff Kearney soon after, and dis­ missed Kearney abruptly in early July. Then, on July 20, only five days before jury selection was scheduled to begin at the Tom Green County courthouse in San Angelo, he retained Walpole, a compact, burly man with a thick goatee from the McKinney firm ofLuce, Nordhaus, and Walpole. fj Walpole spentmuch ofthat first day begging Judge Barbara Walther for a continuance. ''I've been working twenty, twenty­ one hours a day, and I'm still not ready," he explained. "Things are moving even quicklier­ quicker-than originally pro­ jected."

    Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints / Mormons Author: Susannah Crockford Published: 15th January 2021 Susannah Crockford. 2021. "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints/Mormons." In James Crossley and Alastair Lockhart (eds.) Critical Dictionary of Apocalyptic and Millenarian Movements. 15 January 2021. Retrieved from www.cdamm.org/articles/church-of-jesus-christ-of-latter. (First published 3 Jan 2018 censamm.org/resources/profiles/church-of-jesus-christ-of-latter-day-saints.) Summary of movement The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), popularly referred to as the Mormon Church, is a non-Trinitarian restorationist branch of Christianity. It was founded in New York State by Joseph Smith (1805–1844) after he had received a series of visions in the 1820s and claimed an angel had directed him to a buried book of golden plates inscribed with the Judeo-Christian history of an ancient American civilization. The English translation of these plates is known as The Book of Mormon, which, together with the Bible, is regarded as Divine Scripture. The Church is restorationist in that it sees itself as restoring the early Apostolic Church in a new form; and it is millenarian in that it anticipates the imminent, physical Second Coming of Jesus Christ. By returning to the early Church as described in the New Testament Gospels, Mormons seek to prepare for and create the Kingdom of Jesus Christ on earth. The Church situates North America as the focus of its millennial expectations. The Kingdom of Jesus Christ will be centred in the state of Utah, where the Church now has its headquarters.
