| Message | The human being is a monogamous animal, polygamy ruins the family-based society. Not going as far as to actively forbid them, the state should never recognize polygamous marriages. |

| Message | We don't agree with it either but it is the will of the people (OOC: see the newspaper, you have to go back one or two pages) |
