I would like to be married to 6 women at the same time.

I have Sundays off.....

Here ya go; guys.

When yer done with THAT one; tell us why SLC fails to follow GOD’s command in D&C 132:58-66
Look at the ratio of male/female births.
All things being equal; some fellows will miss out on getting a wife.
(But since Darwin tends to weed out the REALLY dumb guys; this’ll fix itself; I guess)
There is NO math reason that a man should NEED more than one wife.
The Book of MORMON:THE BOOK OF JACOB
THE BROTHER OF NEPHICHAPTER 224 Behold, David and Solomon truly had many wives and concubines, which thing was abominable before me, saith the Lord.
25 Wherefore, thus saith the Lord, I have led this people forth out of the land of Jerusalem, by the power of mine arm, that I might raise up unto me a righteous branch from the fruit of the loins of Joseph.
26 Wherefore, I the Lord God will not suffer that this people shall do like unto them of old.
27 Wherefore, my brethren, hear me, and hearken to the word of the Lord: For there shall not any man among you have save it be one wife; and concubines he shall have none;
28 For I, the Lord God, delight in the chastity of women. And whoredoms are an abomination before me; thus saith the Lord of Hosts.
29 Wherefore, this people shall keep my commandments, saith the Lord of Hosts, or cursed be the land for their sakes.
30 For if I will, saith the Lord of Hosts, raise up seed unto me, I will command my people; otherwise they shall hearken unto these things.
31 For behold, I, the Lord, have seen the sorrow, and heard the mourning of the daughters of my people in the land of Jerusalem, yea, and in all the lands of my people, because of the wickedness and abominations of their husbands.
32 And I will not suffer, saith the Lord of Hosts, that the cries of the fair daughters of this people, which I have led out of the land of Jerusalem, shall come up unto me against the men of my people, saith the Lord of Hosts.

I have no idea who these folks are. You use abbreviations and some strange document numbers that I can’t make head or tail of what you’re referring to.
Rest assured that those OTHER folks I pinged definitely know what I'm talking about!!
SLC is Salt Lake City; homebased of the largest Mormon denomination on earth.
Googling D&C 132:58-66 will illustrate what those 'strange numbers' are.
