Escaping a Polygamous Cult & Mixed-Orientation Marriage Amid Faith Crisis

Escaping a Polygamous Cult & Mixed-Orientation Marriage Amid Faith Crisis

Today we are joined live with Nephi Robinson, former Order cult member. One of the most sacred tenants of The Order, a fundamentalist polygamous break of sect of the mainstream mormon/LDS church, is living polygamy. Nephi knew he was gay, but hid it most of his life because living authentically was never an option for him. He was essentially assigned a wife at a young age and had 7 children before he realized he couldn’t pretend anymore. His father, who had 14 wives and over 160 children was pushing him to take another wife, so he came out to him. Nephi was told he was gay for various reasons such as eating too much chicken and he needed to stay faithful lest he go to the depths of Hell. Thankfully, he didn’t listen, got out and isn’t hiding his true self any longer.
