Moses spoke about the inheritance of the first born of the first hatred & the second loving wife. It means multiple wives are permitted. In New Testaments, the twelve gates of New Jerusalem are named according to the 12 tribes of Israel, which were born of 2 wives of Jacob and his two servants = 4 women. It means the righteous will enter New Jerusalem by the gates of the sons of Jacob the polygamist because Polygamy is permitted in the bible. Refusing polygamy = can’t enter New Jerusalem
I don't have any problems with polygamy IF it is only between consenting ADULTS and is not religiously based. Go ahead on and I might even join ya up the road. But, leave the kids alone and don't trap someone in it because you scare them into believing that "god" says it's the right thing to do.
Had you really not heard about this story until now? Good grief, it was plastered across the states for weeks on end when it first happened.
I have no problem with polygamists. If someone wants 100 wives or 100 husbands and the 100 all want the same thing. The problem comes in when they start marrying under-aged children who haven't had the life experiences necessary to make informed consent. But if all the wives or husbands are over 18 - who the fuck cares?
What sucks when the damn Mormons make up a sizable percentage of the population. They always run for kind of offiice and start passing ridiculous laws.
You need to carefully sort out the particulars of what the people did & how the state handled the case. Waco was a perfect example. Yes, there were a bunch of religious zealots camped out w/ a messload of guns. Still, the way the govt handled that situation was absolutely, totally 100% dead wrong. (See the movie "Rules of Engagement" if you don't believe me.) Be very careful of the powers you endorse giving the govt, since they will take that & always push the boundaries seeking more authority.
I agreee! My aunt was in a similar situation. They have horrible lives, some had been forced to marry siblings

child abuse is appalling, obviously.
i have no problem with polygamy, if all parties consent without coercion. i personally couldn't live like that, but, to each their own.

Given that the angel that appeared to them and inspired the religion was called Moroni, why did they not call themselves Morons? Mmmm.

Might as well have said "sex ranch" considering that's probably what was going on there.
It's funny how all these religious types turn out to be really sexy and kinky. It's a scandal. Why can't ordinary women in society be like that?

Can you imagine having 9 wives? I think one must be hard work, but 9? All the back biting, oneupmanship.. *shudder*
Nine husbands on the other hand.. *dreams* ;)

Why does society allow it? His freedom? What about the freedom of the women and children?

oh, that family. i forgot about them.
sadly, marriage is legal at the age of 14 most states in the US (with parental approval) especially the hillbilly states like Texas.
