Given that Mitt said the following "The practice of polygamy is abhorrent, it's awful, and it drives me nuts that people who are polygamists keep pretending to use the umbrella of my church," he adds in his ornate office at the State House. "My church abhors it, it excommunicates people who practice it, and it's got nothing to do with my faith." ( http://www.mazeministry.com/Mormonism/romney/romney.htm )

Shouldn't we consider all of Romney's Mexican relatives EVIL? ( http://rockcenter.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2 ... -of-border )

Oh my.

The non God-authorized practice of plural marriage is evil, yes.

Not really what Romney said, though.

But he can mean it without lying. All I meant was to answer the question of whether or not Mitt's relatives are evil.

Romney sure seems to think his ancestors were evil.

But I do not think his ancestors are evil for having plural wives. Even the defenders of proposition 8 support polygamy.

This is so deceptive as to count as a flat out lie. It implies that Mormonism has literally nothing to do polygamy. Think how many books there are on that very subject (Mormonism and Polygamy).

So, sorry to say it, but he is a liar.

BC, you have truely the most tricksy legalistic mentality I have every seen.

By the way, I guess you would feel fine saying that "before 2012 there was no polygamy practiced in the LDS church". Get it? It's the thing about death in the worlds again LOL

"BCSpace" doing violence to the English language online in the service of apologetics since 2002.

Thus all Polygamy is evil because God never authorized it, even for Joseph Smith Jr. Really, I promise. I have a testimony of this.

So you are implying that im evil then? Ill take that as a compliment then I guess. :3
