| Message | The AFP reiterates its previous decision on this proposal. Polygamous relationships are inconsistent with Aloria's cultural heritage, and would therefore undermine social cohesion if allowed. Furthermore, such relationships stand in direct contradiction to the pairing of a man and woman, which is hard-coded into human nature. We give our full support. |
