Well, there is that cannot enter into the kingdom of God thingy
Here come the Muslims. But they are supposedly limited to 4.
“Seriously, I would like to know a reason other than “Jesus opposes it.””
Just imagine, TWO Mother-in-Laws.
Oh, the horror.
Because all the alpha men (a minority of men these days) taking up all the attractive women (a solid majority of women, at least in some places) will simply create more bitter, enraged “incels” who will endeavor to take their pain out on the world (mass shootings, car attacks, etc.).
That’s why.
Down with state-sanctioned adultery and sexual anarchy!
It means polygamy would create the best tax loophole ever seen. Legal marriage in the US and a religious understanding of holy matrimony are entirely distant things. The state has completely separated sex from marriage. They’ve taken away permanence through no fault divorce. Legal marriage is simply a financial arrangement between parties that allows for special privileges on a temporary basis. So why not marry to avoid inheritance laws, to sell a business, or whatever works.
Bingo! Wining Post of the Day.
Don’t take the Mark.
It was good for the Hebrews after all.
Family life ran so well for Jacob, David, and Solomon. (Sarcasm on)
The only polygamous family that I can recall being portrayed neutrally in the Bible is that which produced Samuel. Does anyone have a better suggestion, or even a suggestion for runner-up?
::No one. Easier to have an affair on the side.::
What is better, a polygamist who does not polyg;
Or a monogamous who does not monog?
If you have ever had a little on the side think about how a polygamist would be better then you at being responsible for his sead.
Sorry, but gov’t should have no role in marriage of any kind.
If you want a legal agreement between you and another person, write it up like any contract, but keep gov’t out of defining things that are not within its constitutional power.
The 1856 Republican platform denounced those twin relics of barbarism, slavery and polygamy.
Some guys are masochists.
They are the same ones that like polygamy.
LOL!
My husband and I are faithful to our vows.
If this is so important to Utah, then take their statehood away.
When my late wife of 55 years was dying of leukemia, she said, "I don't want you to get married again. If you do I'll come back and haunt you." I replied that I didn't have 55 years to train a new one. I can't imagine having to be with more than one.
Polyandry!
WOO HOO!!
Now if I could just clone the hubby....
::My husband and I are faithful to our vows.::
Sadly, you are amoung the few.
He probably drinks “Five Wives Vodka”. It’s gluten free, dontcha know.

****but polygamy is mostly seen as a heterosexual ‘guy thing’ and so of no interest to the feminist and gender theorists currently in control.****
This is absolutely not a heterosexual power play. This is the ultimate destruction of the family as the core of civilization. The ways in which this would branch out would destroy Western Civilization in a heartbeat. Can you imagine groups of connected lesbians working to deny heterosexual people banking privileges? This is the world they want to inflict on heteros.
