I am saying that maybe not all the so called bad groups, are really bad.
That, some people are ok and treat other decently, regardless if they are polyamorous, To demonise any group, because of one extreme example Thats wrong.
I know people from every religion, islamic, jewish, christian, mormon, scientologist, buddist and more. Some are idiots, not because they follow the religion, but because they are idiots. I dont use those idiots as a template for all people of that religion. I just say this person/cult/group are idiots and its scary that they can do that. BUT that doesnt mean this other group who follows a similar path is exactly the same as them.
That was my point. That group theres something wrong there and should be dealt with. BUT there are other groups who do the polygamy practices that are good and decent, and kind. Should i call those "good" groups evil because one group decided to do bad things. NO. That was my point, That Y not all are like this because of x group. The previous posts seemed to say that any relationship that isnt a 1 on 1 marriage, is somehow, gross or evil. This same attitude can be seen in so many other ways in this modern world. Should i blame my muslim friend, who abhors what happened, because of some idiotically dangerous people. Not everyone is alike, not every group is alike, its how people love to say all these are like this because of one group. Thats a very dangerous ground to start thinking.
I try to see that not everyone is the same. That people are people are should be taken as individuals, and that groups should be taken as groups not the base standard for all.
you may want to read this article on wiki, but it has good links and shows that not all polyamorous groups are like that cult. (not that i want one.) Polyamorous groups are NOT like that cult.

H.L.Mencken wrote:"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.â€
