Mormons: once again, ruining things for everyone.

(Short version: Plural marriage remains illegal among consenting-adults-as-equals because Mormons insist that trafficking children for sexual purposes is a religious obligation *and* that it's the same as plural marriage, and the Mormons themselves were the test case before the court.)

Yup. The fact that this law *also* prevents non-gender-weighted non-general plural marriages is a side effect: Those people were not the plaintiffs.
