I guess the PR department is working overtime this week.

They need to be working overtime, what with the "We're "normal", we're mormon" ad campaign running and Sister Wives in the news.

Police say they are investigating Kody Brown, 41, the patriarch in the center of the TLC reality show Sister Wives. The show details the lives of Mr. Brown, four women who call themselves his wives, and his 16 children. The entire group lives together just outside of Salt Lake City, Utah. Mr. Brown is only legally married to one woman, but counts the other three as "sister wives," a term used in polygamist groups.

No arrests have been made, but detectives are now working on the case. Polygamy used to be a common practice among Mormons, but the church has officially renounced it. Still, the practice still exists in scattered communities in the West, Reuters reports.

Sorry GOD;
We KNOW what You told us in D&C 132, but DAMN!, these MEN have made some laws, and we're afraid if we follow YOU, we'll lose all of our stuff; so ADIOS: it was a fun 47 years of an Eternal Covanent!
