Well, in the case of the FLDS we're dealing with polygamous, fundamentalist Mormons. Their community on the Arizona-Utah border might be the most insulated in America. You would indeed find them alien. I even do.

I view Mormonism as something of a scam to get girls - or at least that is what it was originally, and the FLDS is true to the original Mormon faith. But one might genuinely believe in a god that grants him twenty good looking wives.

Certainly that community is ignorant enough of the outside world to believe their own bullshit as it were. They'd sort of have to believe it to continue on against a hostile larger society.
