It seems very incestuous to me.

Yeah. It does seem to matter which group they are with though. Like in the video I put on here.....they seem to be fairly normal and of the same age. They also apparently choose their mates. But in the FLDS (where they did the raid in Texas), the prophet "assigns" spouses. It's sick. Little girls and old men. Even when they are close in age, they only find out shortly before the "wedding" who they are assigned to. Later on when things started getting sicker (after Warren Jeffs took over) wives and families could be "reassigned" when the men didn't toe the line. So, there seems to be a spectrum for sure.

Yeah, people do all kinds of things in the name of religion.
