Nancy Mereska knows me, so it would seem, although I haven’t a clue as to who she is or by what means she came to conclude that all polygamous relationships are abusive.  I’m sure she knows what she is talking about since she obviously knows all polygamists.  I mean, she has to, right?  I suppose she considers all Arabs to be terrorists and all blacks to be criminals as well.

Winston Blackmore, who faces criminal charges for having 19 wives, is offering online advice to women in abusive relationships.

Five months after he advised his blog readers that he would remain silent until his court case is finished, Mr. Blackmore posted answers on his website sharethelight.ca to a series of questions that he says he has been asked.

First, he states the question: What advice would you give a woman that is locked in an abusive relationship?

“This sounds like a question for the Ann Landers column,” he responds.

However, Mr. Blackmore says, he will treat the question as a general inquiry, not a personal problem.

He also says he decided to limit his response to physical abuse, although critics of polygamy say all women in polygamous marriages are in abusive relationships.

Nancy Mereska, who for the past six years has headed an e-mail campaign to stop polygamy in Canada, was startled by Mr. Blackmore’s posting.

“I consider all polygamous relationships abusive,” she said Tuesday in an interview from her home in Two Hills, Alta., 100 kilometres northeast of Edmonton.

“I mean, all polygamous relationships. I don’t care how modern they try to appear,” she said. “Every aspect of a polygamous relationship is abusive.”
