SHARIA NEW YORK: New York City Moves to Grant Legal Protections to Polygamous Marriages (Multiple Wives)
More sharia.
In Islam, a Muslim man is permitted to marry a maximum of four wives at one time. A woman having multiple husbands (polyandry) is strictly forbidden (haram) in Islam.
Don’t forget: In the move to legalize and recognize same-sex marriage, conservatives warned about the door that was opening and the direction it would lead. If marriage is not the union of a man and a woman, what is the limiting principle? The response at the time was mockery and condescension, painting man-woman marriage proponents as prudes trying to generate fear and intolerance. New York Sun reports:
The left’s push to grant legal protections to polyamorous relationships is reaching New York City.
The city council here is weighing legislation to enshrine “nonmonogamous families” as a protected group under the Five Boroughs’ Human Rights Law. The slide toward legalizing polygamy is the latest vindication of the warning from the conservative dissenters when the Supreme Court found a constitutional right to same-sex marriage…. The legislation is needed because these “nonmonogamous families,” Ms. Hudson asserts in a memo supporting the proposed law, “are not protected from discrimination by city law.” The measure, in Ms. Hudson’s telling, is meant to ensure that legal “protections apply regardless of the number of people involved in a relationship or the nature of their emotional or caregiving bonds,” provided that “the relationship is lawful” (New York Sun).
