" A man must have at least 3 wives to be able to reach the highest celestial levels of heaven , and the only chance for a woman to reach the happiness of eternal heaven and not burn in hell is to be the wife of a righteous polygamous man " So saith "The Prophet" Warren Jeffs , president of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, out on the arid plains and secluded redbluff canyons of the Arizona /Colorado/Utah deserts . In land of no first kiss, Warren Jeffs rules Taleban-style rickross.com * Important note , "The Prophet" parts his hair on the left side nndb.com Prophet of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Inherited the mantle from his father, Rulon Jeffs, after the old man's death in 2002. What happened next was revealed in an anonymous letter: Remember Uncle Rulon died on Sunday, dissolving the First Presidency. Warren was still only an elder. The following day, at Monday morning meeting, Uncle Warren, besides giving us details on the passing of Uncle Rulon, made this statement. "I won't say much, but I will say this, Hands off my father's wives." Speaking to the newly bereaved widows, he said, "You women will live as if father is still alive and in the next room." I remember thinking to myself, "Who in the world, at a time like this, would be lusting after Uncle Rulon's wives?" The thought sickened me. This was said on Monday. By that Friday, Warren moved in on those women so fast, and with such finesse, that only two of his "mothers" had enough fortitude to stand up against him. Those stunned women, who had sincerely believed that their husband and prophet would live 350 years and give them children, went through the shock of losing their husband to death, seeing him buried, Warren proclaiming himself prophet quickly thereafter and then immediately receiving revelation to marry those women "found worthy of him" in secret ceremonies. Before committing that kind of sin before the eyes of God, one of his mothers, seeing the futility of fighting him off, bravely fled the compound and left the community at a run. Another of Warren's young "mothers" flatly refused to go along with the marriage. She was sent back to live with her father and told she would live the rest of her life out without ever being married.
