Mormon leaders aren't against polygamous relationships? News to me.

To some extent, I guess I am a product of my social times because illegitimacy doesn't strike me as a scourge either, so I'm not sure I believe there should be such public statements. It is a bit jarring to see Bristol Palin out there advocating for teen abstinence. Do you think she will come up in YW lessons this week, and is that how you would teach the topic? |
I haven't read the article, but I have a hard time believing that illegitimacy isn't a major social problem. How many black kids in America are raised by a single parent? 70%?
How many kids don't have a father? The LDS church, by its nature, I think is uncomfortable in social intervention in society at large, unlike some churches. |

If you look at RHG's previous sentence, I don't think she's questioning the fitness of the speaker (Bristol) so much as she's questioning whether these statements are fruitful in the first place. |

As to the talk-show circuit: do you have some inside info that Bristol is not tending her newborn? |
