45. the LDS church which promoted prop 8 does not support polygamy
Edited on Tue Nov-11-08 10:42 AM by lelgt60
Mormon Church president Wilford Woodruff announced the end of the practice of polygamy in 1890, and it currently forbids its practice. Splinter groups still do practice it, but they are not the Mormon church which promoted and whose members gave so much money to prop 8.

I don't know if you know this, or were just being a bit sarcastic (which is fine).

I find that if people actually believe and restate false assertions, they are counter productive and can be used as a justification against our position.

Just wanted to clarify.
