Federal judge strikes down key parts of Utah's polygamy law

"............Kody Brown issued a statement through Turley thanking the court for the “historical ruling.

“While we know that many people do not approve of plural families, it is our family and based on our beliefs,” he said in the statement. “Just as we respect the personal and religious choices of other families, we hope that in time all of our neighbors and fellow citizens will come to respect our own choices as part of this wonderful country of different faiths and beliefs.”..........."



Good for Mr. Brown. I'm not promoting plural marriage, just happy to see anyone willing to go on the record as being Pro-Tolerance these days.

Adgal said a mouthful... as long as it's "consenting adults", I've got no issue with it.

My problem is when they start including children (under the age of 18).

Makes no sense to me, but I don't take issue with it.

I have no issue with this.  I say the same thing I always say...if everyone is of legal age and consenting, then their private life in terms of marriage and sexuality is their choice and their business.  I do take issue with the FLDS due to the underage marriages in that cult. But consenting adults?  I don't  understand it, but have no issue with it.

Yeah, doesn't bother me at all.  I can find other things to be concerned with.
