The Polygamists-National Geographic

For the Polygamist Community in Colorado religion shapes the world in a very hostile way. They have been separated from the outside world by their leader Joe Jessop who has 5 wives, 46 children and 269 grandchildren. Reading newspapers is frowned upon so there is now way to find out what is happening in the world. This specific branch of Mormonism discourages mingling with the outside worlds affairs to keep the sanctity of the covenant pure and untouched. With out the understanding of what the world is really this religion makes everywhere but their small ranch in Colorado seem like a different universe.
