5. These girls are "of age"
Like right past puberty, 14 or 15, which was certainly old enough to get married in 1847 when Brigham Young headed west. Another change in the law that the FLDS is oblivious to. If you look at what Jeffs was convicted of, it was arranging a marriage between a 14 year old girl and an older boy, I think 18 or 19.
