I'm actually very surprised people have such a hard-on for disagreeing with me on issues like this, but here goes anyway. Sure I don't agree with polygamy (definitely not), but I don't think it should be illegal. It doesn't hurt anyone (RAPE and forced marriage does, but that's the real crime- not polygamy). You see what I'm trying to say? Legalizing gay marriage was a positive step towards a tolerant state (i.e. no laws based on one group's morals). Being gay and married doesn't hurt anyone, even if it offends someone else's moral views. The worst part is separating the children from their mothers. If they want to investigate rape, then they should investigate rape, not separate 400 or so children from their parents. Even if you think the women are delusional they're probably not terrible parents (like, would sacrifice the kids to god because they're all in trouble or something). I would get to the other stuff but I'm not in the mood really to debate on QBN :P
- True, but I want to know how these people are raised. Ppl should be allowed to choose their own path w/o influence.Jaline
- To some degree. You know what I mean. Some children are not given what they need or want...Jaline
- Also, these women probably don't know what equality means between men and women. This should be known.Jaline
- But nobody bloody knows it- they should be allowed to raise their kids their way the same as any other parent.ismith
- If they harm them, action should be taken. Otherwise, when the kids are older they can choose to give it up or continue in the way that they've accepted.ismith
- continue life the way they already accept it.ismith
- wait... men and women are equal now?flashbender
- How did gender equality get pulled into this? Do you wish to have multiple husbands?ismith
- No, but there are issues of equality here. Come on.Jaline
- I don't mean to nitpick, but you know that the men are treated like gods, and everyone in the media is focusing on the women.Jaline
- women.Jaline
- I don't see it... they're adults, they choose to do what they do.ismith
