I couldn't care less about the polygamy angle except as it relates to child abuse. This waste of flesh liked to arrange and perform marriages between 13 year olds and old men. Stake him out over an ant hill, cover his nuts in honey, and let nature take it's course.
Jon Krakauers "Under the Banner of Heaven" is a pretty good write up on these child abusers.

Those who practiced it were asked to by the leaders for reasons I brought up befor. I am not as knoligable as I should be so I don't wan't to say somthing that is wrong I didn't intend to debate religion so I will leave it at that.

Funny how it was only "religiously necessary" right up until Utah applied for statehood, and renouncing polygamy became a condition for granting statehood.
What an astonishing and fortuitously timed religious revelation. :hmmm:

I'm truly sorry for you. If it helps I've found messing with the minds of evangelicals doing the door to door bit can be good for a quick laugh. Though I usually reserve that treatment for the ones who can't take a polite hint or direct statement that I'm not interested.
