Really? Then why am I, as a Mormon, deprived of the right to have more
than
one wife?

You should not be, IMHO. However, you should also be in favor of laws that
allow a woman to have more than one husband. Anything less would be
hypocritical.

As for the Boy Scouts, most of them take issue with the notion that
homosexuality is consensual or that it does not infringe on anyone.

Those people are ill-informed, and are allowing their fears to color their
judgment.

Many of
the Scout leaders and parents are very concerned about pedophilia

Pedophilia happens with or without homosexuality. The two are not related,
and to persecute all homosexuals because of some pedophiles (gay or
otherwise) is just absurd.

Most murderers are heterosexual. I suppose we shouldn't allow any straight
people to be teachers. After all, would you want your kid to have a
murderer for a teacher?

Not really. Pedophilia has been tolerated among *certain* Catholic priests
for some time and now, in view of the thousands of assaults against young
men *made public*, a lot of people are beginning to question whether that
was a wise policy.
