State vs. Holms
Utah Supreme Court says that ban on polygamy is Constitutional.
Screwing someone besides your wife, and calling it just plain "sex" and not marriage, continues to be legal. Makes perfect sense, right? Put people practicing their religion in jail, while you celebrate adultery in the media. http://www.sltrib.com/ci_3829072 Given the SCOTUS decision, State vs. Lawrence, it is hard to argue that this decision by the Utah Supreme Court follows the reasoning of SCOTUS. In fact, Scalia said that if you can't prohibit sexual activity between consenting adults, you can't prohibit polygamy. |

Should the state be able to prohibit sex between consenting adults?
