The Mormon church (I am not a member) banned polygamy over a century ago. Those Mormons who still practice polygamy are excommunicated from the church.

They’re not going to bring back polygamy. Don’t be silly.

I had a Mormon woman tell me she thought this was why our country was in such bad shape, she told me this 4 months ago
and she was serious
THAT is why Mitt was for it

Joseph Smith had 34 wives, including young teens and other mens’ wives. Moral flexibility was built into the church from the beginning.

The mormon church is desperately trying to be seen as Christian, they see liberalism in religion as the wave of the future.
