haifagirl, they get along well if they maintain discretion and hide the fact from most others. Most Attorneys-General will not prosecute polygamy, because it has made prosecutors look really bad in the past.

Even in Utah, if there is no child abuse or welfare fraud associated with the polygamy, it will be overlooked by the authorities.

The real problem polygamy faces in America are the social, inheritance and other legal aspects, such as Which spouse is your Social Security Survivor beneficiary? Who is going to take care of the children of spouses with numbers greater than 2 in the event of your death?

It’s hard for me to assume that none of them are Jewish, since no wise polygamist goes around announcing it to all.

Now, wasn’t the ban against polygamy for 1,000 years? Hasn’t it expired yet?
