		<description>Sorry...... I just slipped in to your trap in just one thing by mere typo..... 
Its not  &quot; I am against polygamy &quot;  
Rather, its nonacceptance of polygamy by people....  </description>

		<description>I&#039;m also not sure where Jews committing genocide on Christians comes in. 
 
Maybe.....but it comes from here 
 
What if women were allowed to marry more than one man? It would be equal then.  
How it would be equal ? 
 
 
 
How ? 
Yes, my reason are against polygamy..... 
The answer to your question comes from another question...... How not are they suppressed ? Even women willing to engage in polygamy, how not they are suppressed ?

		<description>You made the point that if men were allowed to marry multiple women it would, &quot;exploit women, it will suppress women, its not fair for women. &quot; My question to you is, &quot;How?&quot; You also have to remember that any woman in a polygamist marriage, would be there of her own free will. It can&#039;t be forced. 
 
I&#039;m not making the argument for or against polygamy. I&#039;m simply pointing out that those who do make and argument for or against it need to have explicitly secular reasons as to why they want it one way or the other. 
 
I&#039;m also not sure where Jews committing genocide on Christians comes in. </description>

		<description>So, isnt there any reason to accept that polygamy is not harmful to anyone ? 
Why isnt there that there are secular reasons as to why marriage to multiple people is harmful to not this country but people ?

		<description>I agree . I think we&#039;re making the same argument. They need to come up with secular reasons as to why marriage to multiple people is harmful to this country. If all they can come up with are moral reasons, tough. Morality is subjective (unless you ask a Christian, then it&#039;s objective... for them) and we can&#039;t chose one person&#039;s morality over another. </description>

		<description>You cannot make law for each individual......Though free speech protects individual liberty, but it never grants hate crime.... 
 
If we make polygamy legal, it will sure gonna affect lot of women, but might help few individual group who are truly in Love....But marriage b/w two doesnt prohibits consensual living without granted marriage.... 
 
Would Granting gay marriage affect anybody ? or would any male or female be exploited for that ?   
 
You can go one step further, and may ask to allow polygay marriage because it doesnt allow exploitation of women by men....To answer that, we cannot look it that way, its possible even men would be exploited by men, women would be exploited by women.....but still marriage doesnt prohibit consensual living together.... 
 
Laws are to protect people...its not to teach morality or affirm moral values..... 
Question to be asked are :  
Allowing polygamy would be harmful to anyone ? 
Allowing gay marriage would be harmful to anyone ? </description>

		<description>I wonder why Bill thinks he is so smart ? 
 
First, think....... 
Do anybody ever think of that why polygamy is prohibited ? Its not about some polygamy group wants equal right.... A law is supposed to be equal to all. Actually, men naturally have the propensity towards polygamy, but still polygamy is prohibited, because its gonna exploit women, it will suppress women, its not fair for women. 
 
You cannot make a law particularly allow certain group for polygamy, a law must be Universally applicable to all citizen of the nation. 
 
Now think of Gay marriage. 
 
Why is it hard for  him to think ? </description>
