Statehood for Puerto Rico!

Utah senators unanimously pass bill to decriminalize polygamy. The diehard fundamentalist/polygamist Mormon cults held out so long that they finally won!

Utah became a state on condition that Mormonism renounce polygamy. So does this invalidate Utah's statehood?

Perhaps we can replace Utah with Puerto Rico. That way we keep the same number of stars on the flag!

    Utah be like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsW9MlYu31g.

    Meanwhile, polyamorous Richard Carrier is like: "This bill doesn't go far enough!" :)

  2. Did they legalize polygamy or did they legalize cohabitation?

    Say A & B are married and are in a relationship with C.

    Does the law permit C to marry A or B? Or does it permit that C can live with A or B w/o fear of punishment?

  3. Maybe "Utah welcomes you and your wives" can become the official state motto.

    1. *sister wives ;)

      (But I guess Mormons aren't so keen on brother husbands!)

  4. It's been argued for years that legislating homosexual 'marriage' would lead to legalizing polygamy, since marriage is no longer defined as the union of one man + one woman, but whatever consenting adults decide upon.

    And if Muslims can do it, why not Mormons?
