Perry, who considers himself the first national homosexual-rights leader to marry in Ontario, argues the U.S. government, through a concept called "lex loci contractus," has recognized marriages performed validly in other countries, including Canada.

If that were the case, the US would have to recognize Islamic polygamous marriages. It doesn't, so it isn't.

That doesn't mean the unelected liberal SCOTUS superlegislature won't step in to give us a boost down the road to hell by sanctifying perversion in the name of marriage.

Kevin, what does happen when a man with more than one wife moves to the US?

I honestly have no idea.

Are all of the kids labeled bastards?

Is only the first wife entitled to benefits?

Can the man, and his "other" wifes, be charged with adultury or polygamy?

What happened to the Mormons with nine wifes, when it became illegal to have more than one?

I would really like to know...
