- How many Mormons have they been on manhunts for in the last few years for having multiple wives? True, the official church line is the church doesn''''t support polygamy, but after a 100 years or so some parishioners apparently haven''''t got that e-mail yet.

None, no Mormons are polygamists. You can say you are a Mormon, that does not make it true. - Reply to this comment
- I think it''''s pretty *** funny that the Mormon church - the Polygamist church - has injected 20 million of the 40 million spent in California in support of prop 8. You''''d think these folks would have some empathy for a differing view of marriage.

That is what you get for thinking. Get educated first then pop-off. The Mormons do not believe in polygamy. - Reply to this comment
- The lie of "Separate but equal" continues. It is the stain and the shame of America.

If marriage has always been one man and one woman, how is it unequal not to change the definition of the word to accomdate someone''s desire?
How is equality entered into with all of this? - Reply to this comment
It never changes. It just evolves from one group to another over time.
Those who are in the majority want to create a minority with fewer civil liberties than they have. it is disgusting, but America has done it over and over again
Chinese
Blacks
Catholics
Hispanics
Italians
Jews
Germans
Irish
All were treated as second class citizens by the majority- they were denied everything from basic freedoms to the right to own property. Whites and hispanics were killed for getting married in the 1800''s. Blacks and whites were killed for marriage in the last century. Bigotry, fear, ignorance, and hate abound.
Yet today we again have people who, based on their "religion", will do away with the life , liberty, and pursuit of happiness of others who are "different" in their eyes.
Shame on my country. Shame on those who mistakenly consider themselves "Christian". For they are neither true to Christian ideas or good Americans. They are the worst of humanity- the fearful and the bigoted.
The lie of "Separate but equal" continues. It is the stain and the shame of America.- Reply to this comment
- Where did you come up with this lie. I am LDS (Mormon), and I can tell you emphatically that the church doesn''''t support polygamy. Get your facts straight. Polygamy was abolished in the late 1800s.

- You shouldn''''''''t be surprised. Men control the church & what man would want to give up the scenario where he can have a half dozen women in bed with him at the same time. It''''''''s the standard penthouse fantasy. 99% of men dream of having multiple women at the same time.
If it weren''''''''t for the whole religious thing, he!! I''''''''d be Mormon.

- I was hedonistic a minute ago.
I had a breakfast sandwich, and I did not even bother to rinse off the plate after I was done.

Me, I like to sleep on the couch. It''s kinda like pretending you''re married. - Reply to this comment
- "We are the American family, we live next door to you, we teach your children, we take care of your elderly," said Heather Baker a special education teacher from Boston who addressed the crowd at Boston''s City Hall Plaza. "We need equal rights across the country."
Teaching our children about gay marriage is a waste of taxpayers money and a waste of time. Special education teachers should be working harder to get the kids caught up to peer grades, not teaching sexx to these little ones who are already challenged enough. Regular ed kids need to learn about how to make a living. Teaching sexx to kids under age 12 is stupid. Ban the subject of marriage in schools altogether!!! That is the job of parents. You want marriage in schools then bring back prayer in schools. Marriage is a sacred union (religious) so you want seperation of church and state, ban the topic of marriage in schools PERIOD. Make it illegal. Just like prayer is banned. - Reply to this comment
