Decriminalize plural marriage.
Would you take it up if it were?


I wouldn't consider it unless asked to by the LDS Church.

Also, to bcspace, do you think the court decision in California should work in favor of decriminalizing plural marriage?

Its funny how you would let Mormon Inc control your access to plural marriage. Just further evidence that polygamy is a social currency used to control others in more ways than one.

Why would you take it up if asked by the LDS Church? Do you think it is wrong now? Is it repugnant or appealing to you? If repugnant why would you do it if asked by the LDS Church?

Hey Jason,

On another thread, I shared my thoughts on why it doesn't seem like guys who engage (or would engage), in polygamy love their wives or care about their marriage.

Again I'm not trying to be judgmental here but any man that would obey the prophet's (or any church/cult leader's) command/request to screw other women rather than be faithful to his wife can't really love his wife all that much.

Guys that would break the hearts of their wives, destroy their relationships, and engage in such abomination because a church/cult leader asks them to seems like someone seriously misled, completely unloving, or in a state of such fear that they no longer have a sense of humanity and decency.
