LATIN AMERICAN GROUP

[john]

Hello, does anyone know of a polygamous group living anywhere in Latin America, including Mexico?
This includes Latin Americans themselves, or foreigners to that country?
Do you happen to have contact info for them (not essential)?
Any knowledge of the laws of that country?

Any awareness of other parts of the world?
Also, How do people in these groups earn money?

There are FLDS (Fundamentalist Mormons) communities in many parts of Mexico and countries beyond, I couldn't tell you anything specific about them though.

Thanks for your input. I live on the US/Canadian border-Ontario/Michigan.

That might be a good place to live as Canada has a court case or two going now about poly, and they are predicted to go to higher court levels and based on freedom of religion. Maybe we will all be Canadians some day.

I can see all of us in covered wagons heading for Canada...lol... especially, the water logged Nathan... He would die (right Nathan...lol)... Of course, those of us who like to Snow Ski could have some fun.

There are a lot of Messianic believers in Costa Rica, and much ministry activity (Michael Rood has been well-received here for a number of years); increasing numbers of disaffected Americans, including presumably a number of patriarchal-oriented types, are obvious as well.

Beyond that it is difficult to say as of yet, but certainly it's warmer than Canada most of the time, and arguably no worse on the socialist scale...

Do you happen to know where in Costa Rica?
Unrelated to your post, I'm going there tomorrow on a visit.
Thank you for the info.
PS There was an earthquake there a few days ago, 20 dead.

We're currently in Guanacaste, on the coast not too far from Liberia.

There are Messianic believers all over however, hopefully.
