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.

lol, it is always surprising to me the venom which is directed against the 'radical' notions of liberty and freedom :)

I have some books that discuss and may be construed as supporting polygamy. Do you want me to send the titles and ISBNs for your next book burning?

I oppose legalizing plural marriage - government sanctioned marriage is a government incentive and we have no business incenting plural marriage just as we have no business legalizing and thus incenting homosexual marriage.

But.. the bible supports multiple wives. Also, plural marriage doesn't have to be one man and multiple women - it can be be the other way around.

In any case, we need to separate between adults living together voluntarily from forcing underage girls to marry and have sex. One is freedom of choice, even if we don't like it and the other is rape and child abuse.

I totally agree. There is nothing conservative about helping to destroy our civilization as we know it. Pologamy is BAD for women. VERY BAD.
