While young Elizabeth Smart was railing against religion on the stand this week ("He was his number one priority…. he used religion in all of those aspects to justify everything"), others in the courtroom and the jury of public opinion were wondering if perhaps she hadn’t in fact been thinner when first returned to her (Mormon) parents in 2003.
When Miss Smart was returned, she was no longer the gawky adolescent seen in the pictures flashed across the newswires for the year during her search. Instead, we were shown a slim, trim young lady with an admirably shy demeanor.
But where has that meek, waiflike young lady gone???
Miss Smart’s parents are making a grave mistake in thinking their daughter’s celebrity alone will win her a husband. Good Christian Menfolk look over prospective brides carefully for signs of coddling, self-centeredness, and projected cost of future maintenance.
It is for this reason that I beg Miss Smart to return to the simple diet and extra exercise she enjoyed in her year away from home.
Perhaps in her desire to “put the past behind her,” she has rebelled against every aspect of her “kidnapping”. But in my opinion, as one who's no stranger to the values True Christian™ Men look for in a helpmeet, Miss Smart would do well to return to that time's simpler lifestyle, at least in the area of diet, if she desires to become a good wife and mother.
