Case closed on making cases against the case for stuff, in case you were wondering.

RE: Case closed on making cases against the case for stuff, in case you were wondering.
Case in point from LDS:

believe it or not, the Book of Mormon forbids polygamy

subsequent Mormons nevertheless established polygamy, and claimed to be following the Old Testament practice

contrary to the Old Testament practices however, Mormons allowed men to marry sisters and mothers and daughters. Even Joseph Smith married sisters and at least one mother/daughter pair

to secure statehood for Utah, the church announced a revelation, direct from God prohibiting polygamy

church leaders continued performing polygamous marriages for several years following the revelation

Now you might appreciate better my outrage when the goddamn Mormons meddle in public policy regarding gay marriage.
