HELENA, Mont. - A Montana man said Wednesday that he was inspired by last week's U.S. Supreme Court decision legalizing gay marriage to apply for a marriage license so that he can legally wed his second wife.

Nathan Collier and his wives Victoria and Christine applied at the Yellowstone County Courthouse in Billings on Tuesday in an attempt to legitimize their polygamous marriage. Montana, like all 50 states, outlaws bigamy - holding multiple marriage licenses - but Collier said he plans to sue if the application is denied.

"It's about marriage equality," Collier told The Associated Press Wednesday. "You can't have this without polygamy."

County clerk officials initially denied Collier's application, then said they would consult with the county attorney before giving him a final answer, Collier said.

If he is a Muslim he is going to have a legitimate First Amendment case, bolstered by this decision.

How?

Look at the comments on CBS. People AGREE with it. We all saw this coming, but the liberals lied and said it wouldn’t lead to polygamy when they are ok with polygamy anyway. Just look at the American sheep lining up to redefine marriage a third time. Well, what can you expect when society’s god is emotions and government, not God Almighty.

Hardly a week, and the slippery slope conservatives were mocked for considering is already tried.
