For the record I don't understand why Polygamy is illegal if all parties envolved are consenting adults. Just like Gay marriage should be legal. Marital Freedom should apply to all

Bibically Joseph had two wives, Abraham and a side piece he knocked with his wife permission supposedly, so what is the rational behind polygamy being illegal. Again as long as everyone knows about each other. I know there are cases where a man has wives in different cites but if they are all ok with who cares
