> So does this mean no one in this thread can talk about marriage definitions, or is it just me that’s restricted from saying the word polygamy? The actual hijack of the thread had nothing to do with polygamy, but rather the moral and legal rights and wrongs of marriage.

It means exactly what I wrote: there will be no more discussion of polygamy in this thread. That goes for everyone. There are now two other threads about polygamy anyway, so I don’t think this will be a big inconvenience.
