(BTW - Utah did have to get rid of polygamy in order to be admitted as a State.) Those who practice polygamy seem to be viewed as "hell-bound".
Here is a link to some polygamy stories. http://www.rickross.com/groups/polygamy.html#FLDS

Yeah I saw he is on the most wanted list.
I wonder though, for those that practice polygamy, do they legally marry one person and just call the others their wives? Is it illegal then? I'm getting this idea from a Big Love message board where someone had mentioned this.
