Personally, I think that the ones referencing polygamy will have a greatly diminished effect. While yes, there are some in the church (mainly separatist sects) who DO still believe in polygamy, the LDS church officially is against it. IMO, it makes one appear less edumucated.

Just my $0.02 on the topic

(but don't get me wrong: I still think the signs are funny ).

And we wouldn't want LDS to think the irony of their stance on traditional marriage is lost on us.

My point was (I did not express it) the "generalized view" of Mormonism brings up polygamy. Even though the LDS has formally disavowed it. They are still identified as polygamists. So, traditional marriage!

Much like the generalization of the truly misinformed and/or ignorant that gays are abberant sexual deviants and should not have rights to marry or adopt cause the're all pedophiles and sickos.

You would think, after all this time, the Mormon Church would still recognize and remember what it is all about to be persecuted.

I'm still baffled why people are threatened by the marriage thing anyway, a good thing, I think.
