If W. Jeffs church is like most any kind, then there are ALWAYS new "leaders" ready to assend the throne to keep the Church going. By the time the Courts are done with Jeffs- he's probably going to be spending the rest of his Life- in Prison. So whoever takes his place on the "Outside", will have Him to use as a "martyr" to promote his OWN teachings...

I hope his followers have a revelation that their polygamist ideals are socially and morally outdated. Until they do I'm afraid that even law abiding Mormons will be considered to be on the fringe by the American public.

In Mormon theology a prophet is the prophet until his death, so technically there is a good chance that he will continue to be a "Shepard to his flock" from behind bars. As far as who will be in charge in his commune? I have no idea.

I have found that when one nutter is taken out, another will soon take his place. The world loathes a vaccuum.....

I'm sure they chose another "prophet" by now.
