I wondewr if he learnt that polygamy is not a good thing...

He never has spoken against it...

He is the father of gay marriage and many polygamists are for gay marriage...

Polygamy is the reason Willards great grandfather went to Mexico...

polygamy is the reason the Mormons were not accepted by the Christians in the areas they moved to..

polygamy and crime is the reason for the local law enforcement so called “persecuting” them..

polygamy was against the law from 1862 and the Mormons insisted on breaking the “unlawful habitation” laws ...

The last polygamous Mormon leader (prophet/president) died in 1945...

It was not until 1945 80 years after the polygamy law was passed that the Mormons finally had a monogamous “prophet”

Willard in his religious beliefs accepts “sustains” all the former teachings of Mormonism including their doctrine of polygamy which remains the “first principle” the main tenet of their beliefs, necessary for advancement to godhood which is necessary to get into the top of the three tiers of their afterlife...

Your comments are always so insightful. So please share with us, if you will.

On the night of the election, one person will be named the winner - Obama or Romney. I know they are both bad choices for you, particularly Romney, but whom do you want to see making the concession speech?

At least technically speaking, Polygamy is sort of off the table.

It is permitted (if not encouraged)by Orthodox Jewry, Islam of course, and by hundreds of tribal sects, as is polyandry in some cultures. Here in good olde Sodom and Gomorrah-land, communal common-law marriage is not exactly illegal, either.

Back in Utah, there's quite a bit of modern polygamy going on (if you'll pardon an inept phrase) under the table. If polygamy is going to hurt young Willard, the attacks would probably have to come from the "Right," because how can a Leftie be "judgmental " what with their support of queer "marriage," NAMBLA, queer scouts, etc.

As far as Willard supporting polygamy, he can always say, "In a way, those of us who honor the Old Testament all do!"

I was always taught that the Mormons OFFICIALLY gave up Polygamy in exchange for Utah statehood. Wink. Wink.
