You're welcome, but lets leave comments like weirdo and things out of the discussion. I know we get passionate about things, but let's still be as civil as possible.
I know what you're saying. I say things like "weirdo" with a grin. lol But I know it can be taken badly if one is heated... I've been there myself.

Nutcase... lol. I know I can be a nutcase sometimes. I honestly think that if you look at my track record. While I've been called names and tried to defend myself... I've very rarely ever reported something like that to the mods or admin for formal action. Yeah, if someone calls me dishonest. That's cool. I just point out that their incorrect and call them a nutcase. lol
Maybe I should have said "acting paranoid"... or... how do you express that someone is acting on feelings of exaggerated danger against themselves?

Besides, ethically, if a man and more than one woman wish to cohabitate... what business is it of ours??? We're writing laws that would make over half the men of the OT criminal perverts. If we allowed multiple wives.... we'd soon see polygamous divorces. Our cultural fabric and the liberties of our nation empower women far more than at any point in human history. FEW women could consider such an arrangement. And out of those that did... even fewer would tolerate it for long. Again, it would become a marginal practice of a mostly a few religious minorities. Most of which already have such private arrangements under the radar.
And the age of consent is established state to state.
STUPID!! Did you say stupid??? It's on now.
Seriously, who is the government to impose on consenting adults regarding polygamy??
So you don't want government to ban gay marriage, for some stupid reason , but ban consenting adults from polygamy?? What happened to your position about government not infringing upon individuals???
