Not anymore. Mainstream Mormonism (I had an aunt who was very devout)
gave up polygamy in the 1880's based on a "revelation".
Some very fundamentalist Mormons still disagree and once in a while
you'll hear about a big polygamy bust in rural Utah. When you delve
into the cases, its pretty exploitative. In a lot of cases its pretty
much child abuse.
