Hello

Has any one seen the full video of the Romney screwup? In the first part he is talking about his father and grandfather and those of his wife.

I have my own opinons of it but will wait until some of you see it and/or comment on it.

Thanks

He failed to mention why his Grandfather went to Mexico because it was to escape prosecution for bigamy. His family were a bunch of polygamists.

Obama's father had at least 2 wives when Barack was born.

I haven't seen the video, but I have reached the point where I can't wait to hear what Mitt says next.

You don't know what you are talking about. Polygamy is just a way to molest young girls. You approve of it?
 
Why do you assume it must be young girls. What if I want to marry 2 34 year old women? Wouldn't that be better than monogamy with a 13 year old?

Oh yeah? Well OBAMA's ancestors were knuckle-dragging neanderthals! So THERE!


Non-Sequitur is non-sequitous.

Totally false. Polygamy actually has a history of thousands of years and was practiced in many many different parts of the world.

What you said is true for SOME polygamists (like the ones in Utah right now), but it's not correct as a blanket statement for all polygamists. For instance, a lot of tribes now in modern day Indonesia practiced polygamy. Wealthy men were able to marry multiple wives because they could afford to take care of them and have many children. Also a lot of men used to die in the tribal wars, and there would be a female to male imbalance.

That's true for all of us :)
 
Ok Could we please stick to the Thread? If you want to talk about multiple marriages make a new one please?

I approve of plural marriages between consenting adults.... yes.

why don't you?

Because poligamist cults "marry" each others daughters at 14 or less. Do you want to marry your neighbors 14 year old daughter?

yes, some do... and I expect those whom engage in such behavior to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

unfortunately for you, not all polygamists are pedophiles..... not that you will accept the truth of the matter, but it still has to be said.

no , I don't want to marry my neighbors 14 year old daughter.... especially since my neighbor is my son.


you didn't answer the question... why do you opposes plural marriages between consenting adults?
