Sister Wives

As if we didn't have enough craziness on TV...TLC has been further dumbing us down with the reality show called "Sister Wives". Like John and Kate Plus 8 on Discovery wasn't bad enough. I've seen some weird stuff, but this show is by far one of the worst. What is the purpose of filming a man and his 4 wives and 16 kids? Ratings of course, but also for other reasons.

This is how we are forced to accept something we would normally chase out of town with pitchforks and torches. They edit it like crazy, make us think it's actually an awesome life for these women, they feed it to us for years, then someone in Congress gets a publisher to print school books about David's daddy, 52 mommies and 210 siblings aimed at 5 year olds. Now we gotta deal with Gomez Addams and his four brainwashed wives

 First...do I need to point out the obvious here? Isn't he a charmer! If you're gonna put a show on TV about a stud muffin wannabe and his collection of  mentally weak wives he better be hot, rich or both! We're a culture based on appearance. You can't throw Kermit the Frog's raging sex drive on TV and expect us to be canceling important plans like  taking out the trash or chewing off our arms. I'm just saying. But this isn't physical to where most of us can say "well look at him! I can understand." No, this is emotional and mental insufficiency and even abusive.

This guy has been "courting" another wife on the show...a 4th wife while one of his other wives (the one in black) is pregnant. All through her pregnancy he's been driving for hours to be with another woman who he'll marry in the season finale. I cannot believe someone hasn't hit him over the head with a frying pan. 3 women in 1 house...there's gotta be plenty of pans. One episode, he took 2 of his older daughters with him saying he was doing it to spend time with them and how he loved hanging out with them, etc. Then about a minute later the real reason fell out...they were gonna baby sit wife # 4's kids while they went out.

Has anyone else figured out what this show is really about? Not only does Kody Brown have a side business called "Kody Brown Family Entertainment", but this is really about a guy that has found a way through "religion" to get his thrills on anything that's female and stands still for 5 seconds by "marrying" them.

Except the Utah County Sheriff doesn't think he's so awesome. They're investigating him for bigamy and wanting to know how this family makes their money, namely Kody, and how's he's able to support 4 wives and 16 kids.

Oddly enough, during the show, you hear the other 3 wives complaining about him taking a 4th wife. They're jealous especially the pregnant one. These women need to share a psychiatrist not a husband. Kody has nailed down women who've been brainwashed since they were born into believing that the man is all powerful and perfect while us girls are nothing to God and must obey the husband rather than God. In Mormonism, the husband has all the power and can keep their wife (or wives) out of heaven if they don't submit to his rule. God, the Creator and Sovereign Ruler of the Universe, has no say over who gets to come and go. He's left it up to a man-whore.

"Well, King David had many wives and so did Solomon" someone may say. God never, not once, ever, condoned having more than one wife. In fact, He warned against it and called it adultery. King David, Solomon and others who practiced polygamy are examples of the horrendous problems it causes. Judas hanged himself, King Saul killed himself with his sword, Cain killed his brother. Does that mean God allows this too because it's in the Bible? It may have been in the Bible, but it doesn't mean it's there as an example to follow, but rather an example of "what not to do".
