What planet are you from?

There are no “Conservative Christians” who are polygamous. Christianity—from its earliest days, looking to Jesus teaching on marriage, and Paul’s instructions about Church leadership (that, if married, men must “be the husband of one wife”)—has consistantly, throughout 2,000 years of history, rejected polygamy. None of the Apostles were polygamous—and all Christian denominations everywhere....have frowned on polygamy.

The fact that you had some twisted charlatans named Smith and Young in the mid 1800s who came up with a religious justification to take other men’s wives....and a few believed them—and ceased to be Christians in following those anti-Christian falsehoods—doesn’t change the fact that ALL CHRISTIANS EVERYWERE ARE MONOGAMOUS!

The fundamentalist separatist Mormons who keep whole stables of wives...are disgusting—keeping teens and their mothers as wives, and treating their women like baby-factories...barefoot and pregnant. But that’s consistent with their false religion....as a woman’s salvation, they think, depends on her husband, right? THAT’S NOT CONSERVATIVE OR CHRISTIAN!!!

If we are looking to Jesus for an example, maybe no one should ever get married. Despite being a Rabbi, and in complete disregard for the requirement at the time that a Rabbi be MARRIED, it is not recorded in approved canon that Jesus ever took a Wife.

Yes, some heretical texts claim he was married. Others claim that "rabbi" in Jesus' context simply meant "teacher" and that said Rabbinical laws did not apply to Him...

Or... Maybe we should all look to our own lives and let Jehovah judge those who fail to live up to His standards...

It isn't up to you and it sure as hell isn't up to the 500+ perverts infesting Congress.

I disagree with you 100 percent. All polygamous are conservative Christians. They homeschool and have farms. They also go to church. There is no way liberals would be involved in this because they would not want to homeschool and run farms as the white Christian polygamous’ do. I am not for polygamy but for you to lie is not cool.
