No worries; I think I understood your intent, but hijacked the wording to make a point =/ In any case, you're spot on that the culture of fundamentalist polygamy has myriad issues with respect to authority, abuse, etc..., for which tolerance is not a solution.

Mind if I rearrange your enlightened comment?

If you are into discriminating against people for their sexual orientation, that is actually completely within the bounds of the law in Utah (if that's what you're into).

I definitely wouldn't recommend going to Provo or Orem... where there are many polygamists.

Keep in mind that, until relatively recently, homosexuality was as socially taboo, if not more so, than polygamy. Now, I won't weigh in on whether it's fair to group the two; perhaps it's not. But before you publicly castigate a community for their views on a particular sexual orientation, you should refrain from committing the same offense.
