Not quite. Nobody has pointed out that Archuleta's immaturity at 17 is remarkable in a religion that conveniently looks the other way when 12 and 13 year old girls are forced into polygamous marriages with men decades older than them. Most Mormons seem to consider these girls "mature" enough for marriage and consider anybody who questions the arrangements "interfering with freedom of religion." Also, most religions have some events in their history that are probably bogus, but only the Mormon church has 24 centuries of ENTIRELY MADE UP "history" (586 BC - 1820 AD).
While this is true, some of us have concluded that his immaturity is quite possibly a low level autism, mental retardation, or even a possible brain injury (if Poppa Chop is a fan of corporal punishment.)
Oh... or he's VERY gay and not comfortable in his own skin at the tender age of OMG 17!!!1
