Jurisdictional Chaos in Texas
The state of Texas takes legal custody over 416 children without a court trial in yet another raid on a cult compound west of San Antonio. Kevin Swanson interacts with this shocking story, suggesting first that the civil magistrate might arrest every adulterer and fornicator in Texas before taking on the polygamists.
Nevertheless, we are still left with the question of the role of the state in such matters. While trying to preserve family rights in the state, how does one do it when families are dysfunctional and falling apart at the seams? Even the recent California homeschooling case was reportedly precipitated by a disgruntled child in a less-than-unified family situation. Kevin describes the bounds of biblical law relating to family and state jurisdictions, and then proceeds to counsel families that are trying to get along in some state of dysfunctionality.
