Best Answer

Polygamy was practiced in Mormonism many years ago, but is not currently practiced by Mormons today. It is highly unlikely that the kid's family practices polygamy.

_______

While there is a possibility that "this guy"'s family practices polygamy, it is very unlikely. It is true that polygamy, the practice of having multiple wives, was once a part of Mormon tradition, times have changed a great deal since the religion was first founded. It was in 1890 that polygamy was officially rejected as a part of Mormonism, though some sects continue to practice it.

______

Additionally, no sects practice polygamy that are officially part of the church. If you were to practice polygamy now, you would be kicked out of the church... therefore, any "real" Mormon (member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) would NOT be a polygamist, so your friend in high school almost certainly is not

the people of FLDS practice poligamy they are not Mormons though

Do the Mormon values play a part at the university of Utah?

Approximately 40% of University of Utah students are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). While the University of Utah is by no means a conservative school, the culture there is sometimes affected by the large proportion of Mormon students. Most of the Mormon students live off-campus and do not participate a great deal in on-campus events. The Mormon Church itself has no influence over the school, but there is a large Institute of Religion across the street from Huntsman Center which provides religious classes, worship services, and activities such as dances and parties. The Institute is open to everyone, and many Mormon students choose to participate in the Institute activites rather than the school-sponsered activities.
