- Go to Polygamy - why it will become legal
i don't see very much real religious proscriptions against polygamy
except modern day thought.
modern polygamy's problem has been with its application and abuse and the control factor -- men wanting complete control and wanting complete submission from women.
the treatment of young girls in Utah's Mormon community in the 1800's spurred federal laws against the practice, helped to justify a bias toward it.
