All the Mormons I've met were very nice people. However, none of them
was living in a polygamous household.
From what I understand, a Mormon who is married in this life stays
married to his or her spouse(s) in the afterlife, contrary to the
common Christian idea that marriage is only good in this lifetime.
There's also the idea that Mormon married people can populate their
own planets in the cosmos with their children and descendants in the
afterlife. Believe it or not.

That's so ludicrous that "having your own planet" is not that big an

What is important in the U.S. is whether or not we can populate our own
country. If the birth rate continues to drop we will have to increase
immigration. It takes a lot of young labor to feed and care for our
aging population.
To this end, only polygamy has an upside as far as the birth rate - it
increases the number of children born into the household to join the
work force. It's not complicated.
