Why do you assume I want a harem just because I'm in favor of free adults freely choosing their relationships? It's like saying that someone who wants to legalize pot wants to smoke it.

There are legitimate laws against children for a reason, they are not capable of freely making choices for themselves and have less free will than the rest of us.

I'm just trying to decide if your a sociopath or just an idiot. I'd prefer the latter label, but that's just me. As the french say: 'vivre la differance.'

Go ahead and smoke all the pot you want to.

But know this: your libertine notions are nihilistic and a cancer to the most humane, productive and egalitarian society the world has ever known. If you go down this path, tearing down thousands of years of moral and societal evolution, then you'd better understand: you cannot draw an arbitrary line behind you to restrict the whims of those who follow. You find child abuse repugnant at this moment; but what about the future? Desires, yearnings, 'needs'--as we like to characterize them-- change. Moral precepts do not.

I would appreciate if moderators would purge any further discussions supporting polygamy. It is immoral, an abomination, a contradiction to the fundamental assumption of equality between men and women, and the certain means to our complete destruction. If we cannot agree on this rudimentary precept, everything thing else here is false.
