Many are in government. It's not gone and it's growing. BTW, I'm sitting in a Cathedral as I write this. Not to pray, I'm atheist. Won't say more about that.

Mormons... it's part of their basic philosophy. That's why they have polygamy... and yes, there are many polygamist Mormons, I live in the center of Mormonism. It's not part of their public personna and it was outlawed until a couple of years ago. But it's still around. One man, one wife and the younger sisters go with the wife as concubines. More pregnancies, more children.
