Why should that be tomorrow? I say bring that state around today.

I see that appealing to emotion is a common trend in all of your arguments - whether it be existence of god, belief in that existence, belief in objective morality or, in this case, polygamy. Rather than going with your gut sometimes, in case of confusion, you seem to use it as your primary mode of navigation.

So, tell me why do you consider polygamy to be disgraceful, dishonorable and immoral? And remember, since you believe in objective morality, saying you just believe it so is not a valid answer. Within the context of objective morality, your beliefs mean nothing unless backed with justification.

And since you have been unable to justify that position, even to yourself, why should you stand in the way of its legalization? Do you think that everything you consider disgraceful and dishonorable should be outlawed? I happen to think that being religious is dishonorable and disgraceful. Should I start petitioning to outlawing religion as well?
