Judge decriminalizes polygamy in Utah

[dannno]

I think using cocaine is immoral as well, though I also think that should be legal.

I assume you avoid caffeine?

 

[Christian Liberty]

I assume you don't believe that any and all uses of the coca plant are immoral?

No, I just think getting high is immoral for the same reason I think getting drunk is immoral.

I assume you avoid caffeine?

No. Drinking caffeine doesn't cause one to lose control of his actions and his judgment.

I never really understood polygamy. Do they realize that the ratio of men vs. women in the world is 50/50? If everybody was a polygamist with 4 wives, then 3/4ths of the male population must be single right? Thus it can never catch on to the population at large, it is destined to exist forever in tiny little cultish enclaves.

What percentage of the male population is wealthy?

Why should a woman marry a lesser man and have 100% of a loser, when she could have 25% of a legend?

Because not everything is about wealth for everyone?

Can't wait to get me my 4 wives.

this doesn't mean bigamy and polygamy are recognized forms of marriage, just that the obviously unconstitutional law against cohabitation is struck down, and people are allowed to live with their lovers, however many, as long as they're adults and consensual.

 

[Southron]

So, what part of the Constitution did the judge reference/?

No William Tell, I am not moving to Utah.

 

[Origanalist]

One unconstitutional law down, 50,000 or so to go.

Its not about wealth, the rich person didn't get their by accident, but by determination and strength of character. They are much more suitable as a husband and a father.

Or by being elected to Congress.

It's not just about sex, but it can give a man a break if one starts trying to use keeping it off limits as punishment.

There are many men who don't want the responsibility of children, nor do they care for them at all.

There are many women that aren't cut out to be house wives, but are more "tomboy" and might work along side the man.

I see advantages in many ways.

It's funny that people get all up in arms about polygamy, but will sleep with someone who they have no idea who or how many they have been with in recent times. At least the wives of polygamists know where their man has been. And, if his wives are monogamous, he knows where they have been.

And, again, it's more, much more than about sex. It's about family and working toward a common goal, many times that being self sufficient.

To think this thread isn't even beginning to touch polyamory, or group marriages, or line marriages, or one wife and four husbands...

 

[mosquitobite]

one wife and four husbands...

yeah because you never hear jokes about a woman never putting out... lol

That stuff is messed up. But plural wives, and concubines are traditionally acceptable.

For some people it does.

Of course, I believe i have better judgement and control of my actions when I smoke weed so I guess that would be ok.

 

[Wooden Indian]

I smoke weed.

No William Tell, I am not moving to Utah.

Interesting, and noted. I wonder how many rep points it would cost me, to get the other gals on this forum to move to Utah?

 

[Christian Liberty]

Well, you're Muslim

Can a woman morally have more than one husband? If not, why not?

Please, justify your arbitrary line in the sand for the whole class?
