bet they didn’t ask women.....
I’d drink to that in Mecca - if it were legal.
No surprise at all...
Over 130 years ago a decision was made that criminalized the practice of polygamy in the United States.
_______________________________________________
AH no
Polygamy was always against the law...
it was called “unlawful cohabitation”
What happen 130 years ago in 1890 was a Mormon leader decided that he berrer pretend to end polygamy amongst Mormons or the US government would put him and his fellow serial adeulterers in prison and confiscate their lands and belongings..
However that Mormon leader called a “prophet” continued to have morte than one wife until his death as did several others...
In fact that same Mormon “prophet” “married” another “wife” about 1895 a few years after his so called “proclamation...”
The Mormon doctrine for polygamy D&C 132 is still a viable belief in the Mormon religion...
Mormons believe that a male must have several wives in order to become a “god” and rtherefore go to the Mpormon afterlife and live in the highest “heaven” as god over his own planet..
Moermons believe that when trheir mormon jesus returns he will initiate polygamy again...
The Mormon candidate for POTUS Williard Mitt Romney and his cousin Jopn huntsman are the descendants of a polygamous family...
When Romney was asked about his grandfathers many wives he said polygamy was awful but he never denounced it or saiud that it should be unlawful...
Like the Moslems of whom “Thirty nine percent said they would engage in a polygamous marriage if it were legal in the United States.”, about the same percentage of Mormons said the same thing just a few years ago...
Tens of thousands of Mormons living in Utah still practice polygamy today...
As long as its not homosexuality, the Mormons dont seem to see the practice of polygamy as deviant sex...
THe LORD God of the Christian Bible condemns polygamy along with homosexual activites equally...
and both have always been against the law in the United States..
Sharia will not work in my house. My wife will kill me immediately, if I told her I was getting a 2nd wife.
And we've been hearing so much noise from them too !
100% of the muslims in America should convert to Christianity.
"It would enable all the wives to have the same legal status"? Now THAT has got to be THE most hypocritical statement I've ever read in my life! The "legal status" of women under Sharia is that of PROPERTY.
So it's no wonder it was uttered by a propertied female "muslima" - after being cleared by her "husband/owner."
Good GOD these people are sickening!
I bet Mitts is having some wet dreams after he heard about this....
And then there is newt and his past wives, he could have a harem soon by backing this Moslem ideology.
How about instead of instituting sharia, we just stone them all and they can pretend?
Jihadists ought go get out while the gettins good!
I don’t see any actual poll here. What is the methodology? Is this the author’s opinion?
Why would we accept dictates from a system that is waging war against America??
islam is a political/social/religious cult with the goal of destroying western civilization.
Polygamy was outlawed when Utah became a state - the only time that Congress passed a law in violation of freedom of religion and the Supreme Court upheld it.
If polygamy were to be reintroduced, the Mormons would sue, all those in jail for polygamy would be freed and they could sue and, guess what, we pay for it.
No thank you one wife is enough.
Will they include that the husband can only beat his wife with a stick no bigger in diameter than his thumb?
Pedophilia is lawful under Islam
Slavery is legal under Islam
Wife beating is lawful under Islam
Honor killing is lawful under Islam
Should I go on?
I clicked through a number of links, but the closest I could find was:
"This story, and survey results, from the Muslim Brotherhood Linked newspaper out of Maryland"
In related news, 70% of American Christians would like to impose Christian laws in the Middle East. I know many of the simple-minded here will accuse me of "defending terrorists", but is this study really a big surprise?
Although I don't agree with polygamy, it would be a step up from the social arrangement we now have. If a man desires to have multiple wives (all consenting adults) and financially supports all of his children, what's the problem? Currently, an unwed man can father multiple children, not pay a single dime for their support and leave the taxpayers to pick up the tab with welfare programs. Which system infringes on my fundamental right to property (the money I earn)?
If conservatives are ever going to win the culture war, we need to look at the issues rationally and be willing to defend the rights of those we may disagree with - as long as they do not wish harm upon us (as most Muslims do). Am I advocating Sharia law? Absolutely not, but we certainly need to take a closer look at how our government regulates personal relationships between adults, while supposedly small-government "conservatives" remain silent.
70% of American liberals agree.
