So this happened. Not only does polygamy remain illegal, but the court found that polygamy is so actively harmful to the well-being of women and children that it should not be granted charter protection. There will be an appeal to the Supreme Court, but the findings of fact appear to be unimpeachable. Polygamy is officially harmful, film at 11.

This decision is a piece of crap. Solemnizing is the key difference? So some fuckwit "prophet" can live with 5 "roommates" and it's legal, but if he's does a partnership ritual with more than one it's abusive?

This decision won't stand. And shouldn't.

How about a law that prohibits ALL marriage under 18? THAT would help women and girls in a place like Bountiful more than this stoopid decision.

Maybe 16, as its the age of consent

It's a matter of contract law I think.

Besides age of consent for anal sex is 18. Thanks homophobic Cons.

Actually AOC was 14, 18 for anal (or where one party was in a position of power) The Cons removed the sodomy stip and made it 16 across the board..

Well, I'm glad we've sorted that out. I'm sure the Supreme Court will throw out the judgment immediately upon notification that you consider prior jurisprudence to be "crap".
