...other experts, however, the concern is not the separation of church and state but deprogramming. The bottom line, according to Utah psychologist Dr. Larry Beall, who has worked work with women and children who have fled polygamists sects, is the FLDS is a "cult" involved in "plain ole brainwashing since birth." Says Beale, "They have been taught that anyone on the outside is untrustworthy. They are the enemy and they are going to hurt you." He adds, "My experiences with these kids is once they are out of the controlled environment they come to enjoy their freedom...

Nutritionists applaud Beall's efforts--to a point. "This is terrific," says Michael Jacobson, executive director of the Center for Science in the Public Interest. "But let's not forget that Ruby Tuesday also sells a colossal burger that is a pound of meat [14 oz. to be precise] with cheese--a real heart stopper. Some of their food is healthier, but this is not health food." Jacobson insists that too many people will look past the calorie, fat, carb and fiber counts on the menu. What's needed, he says, is sanity in portion sizes...
